Mary Ellen
Anderson, like many of us, learned to crochet at her mother’s side
at a very young age (8). As she grew she experimented with
needlepoint, embroidery, crewel work, macramé (that should tell just
how old she is) cross stitch, sewing and quilting. It wasn’t until
1994 that she found her passion. It was at a sheep-to-shawl
demonstration at the New Mexico State Fair that she fell in love with
weaving. She began with a rigid heddle loom and now spends much of
her time with her various looms (when she isn’t having fun with her
husband, kids, grandkids, or training her search and rescue dog,
Baxter). Mary Ellen will be teaching Rigid Heddle Weaving.
