  • From start to finish, you can see the process of Navajo weaving from shearing the sheep to carding the wood to weaving on an upright Navajo loom. Marie Begay is one of five sisters from the Burnham area of the Navajo Reservation in New Mexico who have taken Navajo weaving to level of fine art.

    Your weaving is beautiful. I have been crocheting 38 + years. It is very soothing to my mind, body, and spirit. I pray over each project that it be a blessing to the receiver. I am Loyal Shawnee, Wyndotte, Seneca-Cayuga and Chippewa.

    Oh my goodness. I would love to sit and watch the whole process. I would love to learn how to do this. I need sheep to spin wool and a loom to weave. Such beautiful work!

    This is a great video showing the sheep, shearing, carding, spinning, warping, loom set up and ultimately weaving. I'm learning and it's definitely a long process. I'm only weaving a 13.5 inch by 14 inch rug and it's taking me a few days of solid weaving. This awesome.

      We loved to stay with grandma. It was comforting. She would weave. We kids would lay on sheep skins next to her. The pounding of her tools was comforting. We would help bottle feed lambs and goats.

    I love how simple their looms are. I want to weave but it always seems like you need to spend hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on a loom. 😢
    But here, the artists are creating such beauty using traditional and simple tools. Love it!

    I've been in an Australian shearing shed which, even 50 years ago, was much more automated than this. Absolutely fascinating to watch and I would love to ask Marie how she plans the patterns of her weaves.

    Mostly likey it was bought by the gallery for pennyon a dollar and sold 100% markup! Its is sad to see the hard work that go into the making of these unique and authentic pieces and the artist are being ripped off!! I don't see a CHANEL OR GIVENCHEY COUTURE PIECE going for less that $30,000.00! Something is wrong with the artist being underpaid and Something needs to be done!

    The Dragqueen Storytime episodes and the sexualisation of very young children lead to me investigating how the 'education' system hypersexualised us growing up in the 70s/80s. Granted we were teenagers but nevertheless we were confronted with page 3 girls, hypersexualised Hollywood movies, pornography etc. (pedophilia was underground then). We were told all this was normal and if we didn't 'fit in' we were old fashioned or accused of being like Mary Whitehouse. Maybe the previous generations were victimised in a similar way and sexualisation has been a way to manipulate society.

      Hi Sam! We don't think Carolyn and Elaine are related. Begay is a very common Navajo name (think Smith or Jones.) Other common surnames are Yazzie, Bennally and Bicenti. Enjoy your beautiful pieces!
