DONNA CAVAGNAC began weaving when she was in fifth grade and has continued her interest in it throughout her adult life. At one point she was running a program for people with mental illnesses and taught them how to weave. That developed into successfully selling their woven items in various area venues. Donna has taught weaving in her studio in Orange, MA and at "Ewe and Me" in Northfield. She is currently in the third year of the Master Weaver's Program at the Hill Institute in Florence, MA.
