About Carol
Carol has a lifelong passion for the history of fiber arts. Over the years, she has gathered a
personal collection of historical looms and fiber tools. This fascination led to her becoming the
editor of “The Weaver’s Friend 2”, a publication for rug weavers using historical looms.
Creativity has been a huge part of her life as a storyteller, teacher, and as a director of
children’s theatre. Any fiber class Carol teaches will have three components: history, skills, and
always an emphasis on personal creativity.
It is because of Carol’s love for the fiber arts and the desire to share this love with others that
she offers a variety of classes to adults, children, and also personalized instruction.
