New Mexico Weavers

Earlier this year, we took a trip down to Taos and points south of there. We visited a number of small weaving shops, from Taos and Arroyo Seco down to Chimayo, all along the High Road.

The Cordovas have been weaving in Truchas for generations. Truchas is also famous as the shooting site for the most excellent movie, "The Milagro Beanfield War."

The Espanola Fiber Arts Center provides a 'seeding' source for artistic development.
