I am Marie, a French-born weaver living and working near Leiden in the Netherlands. My passion for crafts began in childhood, surrounded by the creative influence of my quilter mother and knitting grandmothers. Though I explored various crafts over the years, it wasn’t until I discovered weaving that I truly found my calling. My studio is a space where tradition meets innovation, and every piece I create reflects my journey as a weaver and artisan.

My Craft

Weaving is both a passion and a mindful practice for me. My designs are all unique, often featuring my own patterns or creative twists on classic drafts. I work with a wide variety of natural fibers, and many of my pieces are made with hand-dyed yarns. Whether it’s a scarf, table runner, or shawl, every item is thoughtfully crafted with care and attention to detail.

Materials & Techniques

• Materials: I work with high-quality natural fibers, including eco-friendly and locally sourced yarns when possible.

• Techniques: My process involves traditional handweaving on dobby, table, and inkle looms, combined with modern innovations.

• Specialty: I often hand-paint the warp or use natural dyes, creating vibrant, one-of-a-kind textiles.

My Philosophy

I believe in creating meaningful, functional pieces that bring beauty into everyday life. Weaving allows me to honor tradition while exploring my artistic voice. It is my hope that my customers recognize the care and time behind every piece, and that they will treasure and use them for years to come.
