Holly has been involved with fiber arts for many years. Most of this time, her focus has been on all types of weaving, but in recent years, she has concentrated on tapestry weaving. She finds that the low, meditative pace of weaving tapestries is a respite from our hectic world. Besides abstracts, she enjoys weaving the beautiful nature in our North Carolina mountains.She weaves series of tapestries and also designs and creates colleges, jewelry, and hats.
