This series of tapestries were inspired by a class in Celestial Navigation. As I wove my Celestial Series, I realized that celestial navigation, like weaving, is a connection with the past. There is something quite comforting knowing that, like the sailors of yesterday, we can determine where we are; without the need of GPS.

All that is needed…
- A compass to determine the bearing.
- A sextant to establish the altitude and
- That special moment in time when both the horizon and the stars are visible.

The moon was the first celestial body that we shot using these celestial navigation technques.
