ABOUT
Grace Avery
Textile Designer

I am Grace Avery and I am a textile designer from Pittsburgh, PA. I am currently going to school at NC State University's Wilson College of Textiles. I am studying Fashion and Textile Design with a concentration in Textile Design and I am expecting to graduate in the Spring of 2026. I have had a love for textiles since I was very young and I am excited that I get to continue to learn and grow my passion for all things fiber related. I have completed an independent study focused on crackle weaving and a research project on the processing of Valais Blacknose Sheep Wool in small batches.
