my journey, as a weaver, from "AH" to "KA", on the eternal path we call "Life"

What’s in a Name?

My most recent weaving, which I completed last week and hung at 2Create Art Gallery in Ramona, was woven with more spontaneity and whimsy than any that I have ever done.  My eight-shaft loom was warped and ready to weave; the deer weed I had gathered a few years ago and stored in the garage beckoned; and thrums from a series of textiles I had woven last fall was in a prominent resting spot in my studio.  All came together in a moment, and I was weaving a pattern of yarns and botanicals that magically captured the joy I was feeling in that moment.  Ah...the thrill of the loom!
I couldn’t quite settle on a title for this one.  Perhaps it speaks for itself......  26”x21”. $265
Update 12/11:  upon reflection, I like the title “Ancient Pattern”.
