This weaving has corn stalks, chevrons, squash blossoms, sash designs and some other elements that Alice has skillfully put together. Hand spun wool in natural brown, white and grays with an indigo blue and burgundy red. Alice Begay weaves different designs using wool mainly from her sister Marie's sheep.
We have been visiting and shopping at Toh-Atin for over twenty years. Always loved visiting with Jackson and his mother. We would spend hours gathering information on rugs, jewelry, and baskets- what a tremendous inventory. Everyone was so knowledgeable. We have so many memorable pieces. Jackson asked my husband, " How often do you get compliments on your tie?" We bought a very nice bolo! :)
We had just seen and visited with Jackson two weeks earlier and were so saddened and shocked to hear of his passing. What a loss to friends, family, and community. Our deepest condolences to his family and to the staff.
