A lifelong learner, Susan's passion for weaving, spinning, dyeing and all fiber arts never abated. Susan studied weaving in Denmark and was active in the Handweavers' Guild of Connecticut for over twenty years. She has been teaching since 2010.  In 2016 Susan founded Mad River Fiber Arts & Mill in Waitsfield, Vermont producing yarn for small farmers and selling unique fiber products. Susan is a member of the Vermont Weavers Guild, Green Mountain Rug Hooking Guild and British Tapestry Alliance. Now retired from millwork, Susan looks forward to sharing her expertise, enthusiasm and passion for the fiber arts.
