Peggy Tailor is a weaver who creates historically-inspired textiles. She maintains a flock of Shetland sheep and spins and dyes the wool she harvests in her work. Her methods follow those of the traditional domestic weaving that was common in the early 18th and 19th centuries.
Taylor says of her work, “The handwovens I create have their roots in colonial textile traditions, and I am grateful to EAL for the opportunity to share my work through the Directory.”
Taylor sells her weaving under the name Loom Hall Textiles. Her work has been selected for the Directory of Traditional American Crafts since 2015.
The entry deadline for the 2023 Directory of
Traditional American Crafts has passed. We are now processing entries and submitting
them to our jurors. We will contract entrants after the jurors have made ther decisions.
