Navajo Germantown textiles get their name from where the yarns originated over 150 years ago in Germantown, Pennsylvan­ia. Laverne Tacheney, born Laverne Van Winkle in 1963, wove this beautiful 40by-50-inch textile using traditiona­l methods, including an upright loom. She has been active weaving since the 1970s, and was born for the Coyote Pass People and to the Mountain Cove People. The Van Winkle family have a long history of weaving collector quality textiles.
