AVL TDL (Technical Dobby Loom) $9,500 OBO From the estate of Sandra Rude, artist and professional weaver. Proceeds from the sale of her weaving equipment and supplies will go to the Sandra Rude Memorial Fund sponsored by Complex Weaver's.

Sandra’s beautiful weaving was shown at high-end craft shows such as the Smithsonian Craft Show, the American Craft Council and in juried and invitational exhibits. She won many awards from several weaving organizations, including Handweavers Guild of America and Complex Weavers.
