Weave big..

So there is this space above our bed...

A few weeks ago I was hit with the thought of making a tapestry for that space.

The thought wouldn't go away...
....so...


I decided to 'go big'

Heres the thing about big..
It can be daunting.

I like small.
Miniature even!


Nothing felt 'right'.

Its been a few days now and 'big' and I are getting a bit more friendly.
Slowly chipping away.

Adding.
Subtracting.
More subtracting.

Finding peace in life through the process.


My weaving partner...
She finally took a break from DIVING in the fringe (ugh)!


All the  yarn is reclaimed: estate sales, thrifting, found, from sweaters.
I love that.
A bit of hand spun from Craigslist fiber.

Stash busting.

This piece is going to take some time, but it is going to be
totally worth it!
