Description: I have been weaving for almost 20 years. I wove this on my 40 shaft AVL. I love creating my own designs for Dobby looms. Using books and articles from Margaret Coe, Alice Schlein and Tien Chui, I learned to design in Photoshop, weave words and easily create taquete drafts. While on vacation in Europe, I saw a funny sign in a juice shop about avocados. I asked myself, “Could I weave that?” Yes, I could and I did! It still makes me laugh.
