1 Nov 2011.
Already a year has slipped by since I set up my Studio in the garage! I am mostly able to find things now having reorganised areas a few times. I am really enjoying working in my own space and having instant access to my stash and equipment.
On the loom is a mixed warp in silks, cotton and some rayon highlights to be woven as 4 'Collapse weave' scarves in mauves, purple and silvers. The first one was woven in a navy hight twist wool singles to fill an order. I have dyed some white h/t singles to a blue/purple colour by winding it onto a holey plastic cone and simmering in the commercial dyebath. I will not know if this is a successful idea until the scarf is off and washed/finished. Keep an eye on the Body Accessories page for them to appear!
I am preparing to weave a wall piece for the Artistans' Challenge 2012 at the Cobb+Co Museum in Toowoomba. As well as submitting their work the artisans are required to demonstrate their technique on a day on one of two weekends later in November. I will be there on Sat Nov 19 11am -3pm
In 2012 I plan to have occasional 'Open Studio' weekends.
If you would like to be advised of these events by email please contact me.
