What a great way to begin 2020! Meeting with weavers/fiber artists fellows--
We met at Rosemary's home--her entrance way is truly an introduction to a world
of lovely things--step right in and let's visit........
Rosemary bought this piece of mud cloth at a recent show and sale--she loved it so much that
she had decided to wear it to the Sante Fe Opera this summer
She plans to take apart the seams and use this a wrap for the cool evening nights--
it will be spectacular!
Rosemary showed off her new fashion accessory (on left) cut from t-shirts! Absolutely fun, fun, fun! On the right are folded stars, a gift from a friend--we had no idea what type of paper or technique--very intriguing no less
Barbara showed her four woven twill towels--a commission--the colors are
interesting--each towel has a different treadling and the colors were the choice
of the client
Diane is showing off her handwork--she is following TAST on FB--
A different stitch each Tuesday--Diane found this base cloth and adds
her stitches each week and by year's end she has a completed cloth with
different unique stitches
Diane also has been experimenting (quite nicely, I'll add) with eco-dyeing--she uses leaves of oak, pecan, chinaberry trees and various other sundry natural ingredients to get these lovely designs on
her hand woven cloth
She combines some stitching to showcase certain elements of her designs--just to think all this color comes nature--mordanted cloth and boiling water! Lovely!
