About Louise

Since childhood Louise has had an interest in fibers and fabric. After her first weaving class in 1984, weaving soon supplanted her other fiber art expressions. An analytical mind made her inquisitive about weaving theory and structures and a love of color has led to exciting results.  

While living in Germany for five years, Louise continued her study of weaving in Scandinavia, and became a member of a professional German weavers guild, taking part in their semiannual exhibitions. An expert seamstress, she constructs wearable creations from her handwoven cloth. These are available directly from her St. Paul studio and through selected shops.  Her current passion is spreading the joy of weaving through excellence in teaching, and she offers classes in weaving and ply-split braiding for beginner to advanced experts.
