Crossing Borders Studio Tour 2013 Artist Debbie Cooter

Debbie Cooter

I was introduced to rug weaving 27 years ago as a folk art. The tradition of using recycled clothing to weave decorative and household items appealed to both my creative and thrifty nature.

I wove hundreds of yards of rugs, developing my personal style and color schemes. I continue to experiment with different patterns, my own dyed cloth and new cotton fabrics to create contemporary designs from a traditional craft.
