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.

 

Lined Cotton Zipper top bags

These can be worn as a  cross chest or a shoulder bag (just knot the cord strap)

They are washable.  There are two small pockets inside to carry your driver's license and a credit card if you want to go light.

$45

 

 

 Wool Rugs or saddle blankets

  $350

 

Wool Capes with attached scarf -

These are "one size fits all".  They are approximately 40 inches long (shoulder to hem) and very wide.  Some one referred to them as "a sleeveless coat", which is pretty accurate.

$195

 

Lace Shawls -$75-$95

Various threads and textures

Alpaca is $110

 

Wool throw - 65"X65"

 Right now I don't have any.  I just made some in college colors, which is a thought. They are also great for wedding gifts. Of course, I can make practically any color to order. They are priced at $95.

 

V-Shaped Wool Shawl

V-Shaped Wool Shawl - $95

(In chenille or light weight wool - $125)

 I also make them closed in front -  Ponchos.  Right now I have mostly   ponchos, but of course, could make the shawl if you wish.

Placemat and Napkin Sets

 I make all colors- Blue being a favorite of my customers. I even have some that are in "Christmas" Colors.

 4 mats and 4 napkins in a set (sets of 6 by special order)

Re-cycled new cotton placemat sets - $44

 

wool/silk scarf - Grace! Handwoven Designs

I have a few Scarves in my shop right now.

Rayon Chenille and

Hand-dyed silk and wool (50-50)  -

All scarves - $50 - $65

The "PayPal" button to the right is for your use in paying for items after we have corresponded  and either I have the item you want or have made it for you.  Do not order directly from the site as some of these items are already sold and the photos are for information only.

 

Some shops and fairs where my work is available:

Right here at my studio, but you must call ahead first, as  I might be out soaking up the beauty of Western Maine.

 Bethel Area Historical Society Museum Shop

Broad Street, Bethel Maine

Tech Center, 60 Lowell St. Rumford Maine.

(I have paintings at both venues)

 

 

 

If you would enjoy a trip to Maine next fall to view the foliage, combine it with a visit to Fryeburg Fair.  It is a large country fair with animals, food, rides, and you name it.   I will be demonstrating in the Museum on the barn loom. Stop by and say,"Hello".

January is here.  I plan to Paint, Paint, Paint during January and February.  Then kick into gear and start weaving both what I make and hopefully some new inspiration for next summer.  If you want anything, I will be glad to make special orders if I don't have it.
