Welcome to GRACE! Handwoven Designs at Abbotts Mill Farm. I am a one-woman hand-weaving business, weaving and sewing my shawls, scarves, rugs, capes, vests, and blankets. I have been designing and creating for 30 years after apprenticing with a production weaver.  Many pieces are one-of-a-kind incorporating hand-spun or hand-dyed threads.

 

 

They are all gone--I guess I have to get going right after the first of the year to make ???? to put in this place.  Maybe a bag of a different style?
