She Glides…
exposing in rawness her strength and beauty
exquisite beneath,
she glides in the stillness
yet she was not truly seen.
Those moments of glimpses are now passed
into memories
and melt
into time.

Antarctica New Perspectives – …..Relationship
Looking at the relationships between elements can for me bring dynamism to a medium which is in literally 2 dimensions.
In your own photography, why not have a play with placing images together and see what narrative/emotion/movement/feeling develops within you, as a whole new perspective is created as a result of juxtaposing two or more ways of seeing.
I have found that

I weave all my beautiful blankets on my very simple, non-complicated rigid heddle loom by @ashford_wheels_looms
I use color instead of patterns to tell my stories of journeys around the world in our vintage car.

Want to be a cool girl too, but find yourself doing something like this on a Friday night?
Share with a creative friend (because you know they do the exact same thing), and perhaps we could all be cool girls in our dressing gowns together!

Stop buying yarn… never do that!! It’s far cheaper than therapy! Share with a friend who needs to know this; look around my account and come follow along to see if my yarn investment was worth it! (Or I should have gone to therapy!) 🤣🤣

Never stop buying more yarn! Creator materials are important. Far cheaper than therapy appointments! Share this with a friend you think may also like to see this! 🤣
Come follow along to see whether my yarn purchases were worthwhile… (or I should have invested in therapy).

Are selvedges in weaving important? My opinion regarding selvedges/selvages may be controversial amongst weavers. I do NOT obsess over them. I take care, but I do not gauge the quality of my piece by the evenness of my edges.
I don’t think enough attention is given to the quality of the fabric and the aesthetics of a piece; and instead many weavers focus on technical aspects, which in my opinion isn’t worth the attention, because for me it’s not what matters.
I’ve lived a lot, and been fortunate to experience travelling and weaving with women all around the world. Over my lifetime I’ve developed a ‘bigger picture’ view for my life and weaving. ‘Perfect selvedges’ rate very low in my ‘bigger picture’.
What do you think? Come follow along to see what qualities I feel are important in my handwoven blankets.

Here’s a simple tip using 2 cardboard strips as a header to even the shed in weaving. You only need two strips, and it’s best they are really thin, and the sharp edges mitred or lightly sanded (even with an emery board) to ensure that the yarn isn’t abraded. I then weave a small section of woven header which will be removed as the weaving is taken from the loom.
I use a very simple rigid heddle loom; a lifetime of experience as an artist and weaver; combined with a little unhingedness; and my passion for sharing everything I know; means my space here is your go to creative fibre space for weaving, knitting and a big if fun. Welcome. Have a look around. I may even make you laugh.
