Permission to Play with crayons

This is another small quilt that I finished after a play day with metallic crayons in the Permission to Play class. I love to play with fiber!

Permission to Play

Yesterday I attended my Permission to Play class at a local quilt store. The class is for cancer diagnosed patients. We try out interesting and new techniques with textiles. This small quilt to the right is "Sun" which is made with the woven technique we learned several months ago. I just finished it. I will post the Texture Magic that we worked on yesterday when I get something that looks like something.

Towels on the LeClerc

I have been working on a set of commissioned kitchen towels.  The customer wanted towels in colors of blue, red and yellow.  We decided on an off-white warp in twill squares surrounded by basket weave and I will weave single color towels in 8/2 cotton.  They are coming along and I hope they will be exactly what she was looking for.    

Welcome

Hi.  I started my blog today.  My friend badgered me into it.  Thank you Cindie, I think! 

The plan is to show you what is going on in my fiber world.  I love to weave transparencies, a sheer open weave that allows light to come from the back to enhance pattern threads.  This is a transparency that I am finishing up.
