Sandra was a professional weaver specializing in complex weaves using fine threads. She wove scarves, shawls, wraps, and table linens on this 48-inch, 24-shaft computer-assisted loom.

Sandra’s beautiful weaving was shown at high-end craft shows such as the Smithsonian Craft Show, the American Craft Council and in juried and invitational exhibits. She won many awards from several weaving organizations, including Handweavers Guild of America and Complex Weavers.
