    Myra Chang-Thompson

    Myra was born in Northern New Mexico.  Embroidery, crochet and clothing construction were taught by her mother and practiced throughout most of her life. Myra is a professional teacher with 35 years of classroom experience. Early in her marriage, she was given a 4 shaft loom by her husband, Bill.  She was a member of the Stockton Weavers Guild in California.  She refined her weaving skills under the watchful eye of E. E. Gilmore of Gilmore Looms.  Her passion for weaving and teaching grew over the years.  During Myra’s time in the Weavers Guild of Boston, her technical skills were honed.  Upon returning to New Mexico, she joined Las Arañas Spinners and Weavers Guild and Fiber to Finish Guild in Valencia County.  A long time member of Handweavers Guild of America, Myra attends and teaches at Convergence, the biennial fiber arts conference.  She also teaches locally, regionally and nationally.
