Ravenstail Weaving was not practiced for over 200 years, and I was part of the revival when Cheryl Samuel reintroduced this style to the northwest coast. I taught classes when requested by tribal leaders.

The knotless-netted basket classes I teach are my own idea and style of a technique I learned from Barbara Shawcroft at the University of California, Davis, and later observed in Guatemala, Central America.
