     The first evidence of cloth being made was as early as 7000-8000 B.C. Primitive weavers
     used what nature provided for a loom - sticks, tree limbs, rocks. Animal and plant fibers
     were used for weaving blankets and fabrics. Although my loom is more sophisticated than
     primitive mans', it still accomplishes the same thing-the interlacing of 2 sets of threads.
     The fundamental aspects of weaving have remained unchanged throughout history.
     There is great comfort and humility in being part of this time-honored process.
