Peggy Black
Born for the Many Goats Clan and to her maternal Arrow People Clan, Peggy Rock Black learned to weave from her mother, grandmother, and sister. Her husband, Eddie, assists in gathering the sumac and preparing it for weaving. While she weaves baskets with many beautiful designs, Peggy is known for creating “collage” baskets containing figures from many sacred stories, ceremonies, historical events, and the surrounding landscape. Peggy’s baskets won have many awards, but she does not think of herself as a competitive person. "I only want to try different designs," she explains, "I want to experience the designs."
