Planning for a Florida show, I thought of the many shades of blue and turquoise that are found in the Caribbean/Florida seas and skies.
Woven on an AVL loom, and on 16 shafts, the threading is called “Shadow Weave”. It is traditionally woven with very fine threads, producing a small pattern. Using large perle cottons, these patterns are more definite. The small, white stone beads of birds also remind me of the tropics and its colorful and varied wildlife.
