About The Artist…

Beth Wilson
Handweaver

Beth started weaving in 1992.  A birthday gift from her husband for a beginning weaving class, where she learned to weave on a four shaft tabletop loom, started her journey into the fascinating world of weaving.  Multishaft looms have opened the door to incredible designs, but Beth insists there is nothing more gorgeous than plain weave.

In addition to the weaving process, Beth has become extremely knowledgeable with the evolution of looms and has just as much fun restoring and repairing them as she does weaving on them.
Barefoot Weavers Studio houses many looms, most from the mid 20th century and a couple from the late 1700’s, early 1800’s - all provide many hours of happy weaving

After several years of weaving with various fibers, Beth prefers the look of fine linen, cotton, tencel and cottolin and the fabulous luster and drape of rayon chenille.  From reproduction Shaker towels and table linens to timely tencel and rayon chenille pieces, Beth enjoys working with folks to produce custom pieces designed for them.

In an effort to share her passion for weaving, Beth teaches weaving in her studio.
