Since then, she has worked full time as a weaver and artist, including teaching fiber arts, creating and selling wearable art, giving lectures, and showing in local, regional, and national exhibits. Her work has been exhibited at many galleries and museums across the country, including the Gerald R. Ford Museum. She has won numerous awards and written articles for national publications.  Deborah is the author of Rigid Heddle Weaving Basics \u0026amp; Beyond and The Weaving Explorer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cotton Clouds Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Traditional Stripes","offer_id":49321503031515,"sku":"wjr1789640284348","price":38.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Calming Blue Waters","offer_id":49321503064283,"sku":"szn1789640284349","price":26.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Spirited Rose Red","offer_id":49321503097051,"sku":"rbp1789640284350","price":29.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Complete Set (makes 6 towels)","offer_id":49321503129819,"sku":"ahq1789640284351","price":75.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rigid Heddle Weaving Basics \u0026 Beyond Book","offer_id":49321503162587,"sku":"our1789640284352","price":27.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0829\/4124\/7707\/files\/structure-variations-waffle-weave-towels_1.jpg?v=1789640311","url":"https:\/\/archsupportsoleclad.shop\/products\/structure-variations-waffle-weave-towels","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
