Collection: Virginia Burnett
![]() |
Virginia has always been “irresistibly drawn to textiles and to things that sparkle.” As a young girl, she developed an appreciation of handcrafts from watching both of her grandmothers create a variety of beautiful textile art. She took weaving as an independent study in her senior year in college, but ultimately became fascinated with beadwork. Beadwork led to silk dying, and then to Shibori, quilting, embroidery, felting, crocheting and yarn dying. The TAUNY Folkstore’s extensive collection of Virginia’s work represents the depth and breadth of her textile art and bead jewelry. Her “Garden Companion” necklace won first place in Interweave’s Bead Embroidery category for 2023. Virginia’s work has been showcased in a solo Spotlight Exhibit in the Folkstore. And she is a contributor to the upcoming “Legacies” textile exhibit which will be in the Upstairs Gallery beginning August 2nd. |
