In Memoriam Jim the Weaver<\/h3><\/div><\/div>

Weaving<\/h4>

\u00a0James Deghand (Jim the Weaver) was a spinner, dyer and weaver of 50 years experience. He lived and worked at his bush property in Jackeys Marsh, Tasmania as well as in his studio at the DCS. He was represented in private and public collections including the Wolfsonian Museum, Miami Florida, National Gallery in Canberra and the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery of Tasmania, Launceston.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/div>
Jim was initially inspired by the knotted rugs of Persia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. Also by tribal societies in North and South America and Africa. He used primarily woollen yarn in his rugs, blankets and tapestry wall hangings. He produced the yarn himself taking it from the raw fleece through the cleaning, carding, spinning and plant-dying processes. Invested in each piece is hundreds of hours of meticulous work all done by hand as it has been done for centuries past. Each item is unique and crafted to last for generations.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
Jim will be remembered for his perfected craft, his wealth of knowledge, and his kind and gentle nature. A true gentleman Jim wove his latest creations at the Deloraine Creative Studios. He will be forever missed by all who knew him.<\/div>
