HANDWOVEN #3

INSPIRATION!!!  

Inspiration comes from everywhere and no where.  I am enjoying exploring hand weaving on my Rigid Heddle Loom these days.  

Recently I was the recipient of a wonderful piece of sculpture from the fabulous work of Cathy Norrell.
This is such a fine piece of intricate detail.  I keep finding beautiful facets to study and admire.
This piece inspired me to weave a scarf with some wonderful Bamboo yarn I have had in my stash for a very long time.
After warping with some heather blue acrylic, I began to weave.  I loved it!
I am really pleased with the results.  I am so pleased that I took many views of it which I will present at the end of the blog.
But, first, let me show you the inspiration piece with the finished scarf.
Isn't this just amazing?

Here are more shots of both the inspiration piece and the scarf.



What a wonderful, fun adventure I am on!!
