Tisserande Gill Back

I started handweaving after I was given a large 1930's Harris floor loom and that was the beginning of my love affair with weaving! I now have my own studio in France, where I have lived for the last 18 years. I produce a certain amount of my own wool yarn from a small flock of sheep and handspin and dye wool and silk. Sometimes I go for a completely natural effect/product and use organically produced yarns and natural plant dyes but I do also buy commercially produced silk and luxury yarns like cashmere. Most of what I produce are 'one-offs' and I certainly don't do production runs as I enjoy the challenge of designing new patterns and textures and experimenting with colour combinations. I hope you will enjoy browsing through my Etsy shop.
