      Instructor Bio

      Meg Stump

      Margaret Stump has been weaving on pin looms for over 40 years. (Actually it is closer to 50, going on 60, but she would prefer not to admit it.) Over the years she has made innumerable blankets, hangings, bags, purses, animals, scarves and household items because she loves the fun and energy that she discovers when creating with the pin loom. Margaret is the author of three books: Pin Loom Weaving, Pin Loom Weaving To Go, and Adorable Beasts; 30 Pin Loom Woven Animals & 4 Playscapes. She is also a contributor to several loom and craft magazines with a current total of 31 projects and articles to her name. Margaret lives in Minnesota with her husband, Jerry. She happily shares lots of pin loom techniques and projects at the website, Pinloomweaving.com.
