Gerry uses this book, written by Doramay Keasley, for her weaving information. Doramey calls her technique "inlay"--as there is a ground background.
Gerry has a wealth of knowledge stored in her notebooks--samples of her work.

Here are her woven samples--great way to structure your weaving knowledge

I love Gerry's work as she uses many of the Texas landscapes and historic sites as her subjects.

Interlocked and all--so, if you are interested in these techniques, no one better than Gerry to give you the low down.
