“This book does so many things well. . . . The sensitive and intelligent discussion reveals the difficulties of research and interpretation of an art form that was changing and in flux for many generations. . . . The authors have nimbly stitched together the fragments to create a whole.”

—Barbara Brotherton, curator of Native American art at the Seattle Art Museum

“These three authors have thought of us and those yet to come . . . so this ancient/contemporary craft and art may be understood and continued in a modern world.”

—annie ross, Indigenous weaver and associate professor in the Department of First Nations Studies at Simon Fraser University
