Weaving Peace in Arlee--next to last day

They were lining up to weave today---busy busy. Several folks ended up having to leave without getting a chance to weave.


I was so tired last night I didn't post this until the morning of the last day. Here it is, the last morning. I am packing up my clothes and food and heading off to the Hangin' Art Gallery for the last weaving day. I will have lots to report on this full moon day (but it will probably show up on Saturday when I have a chance to catch my breath)

Weaving Peace in Arlee--beginning week 4

Week 4 began with an exciting array of new weavers adding their intention of Peace to banner #5


The latest language added today is French---PAIX


While outside the sanctuary of weaving, art and pastry--- smoke from the fires transforms the day.

Weaving Peace in Arlee--ending week three

Everything seems to been slowing down and speeding up at the same time. I recovered some images lost in my camera, and then I forgot to take pictures during the opening of the new show that opened on Saturday.
Here are just a few of the weavers that stopped by to cap off the week.


At the opening, I moved my loom to the front by the fireplace.

And had the pleasure of cutting off panel 4!


As I enter the last week, I feel certain I can get another panel done. It is going to be a busy week.

Salish Peace


I went off to weave and left my image card in the computer. I snapped pics merrily, and now they are trapped in the camera until I can retrieve the chord that plugs into my camera with USB port to the computer. But there were some juicy pics I can't wait to show you. Meanwhile enjoy this colorful rendition of PEACE

Weaving Peace in Arlee--day3--week 3--(although it is the morning of day 4)


No new weavers today, but here is what I wove.

I decided to weave the Salish word for Peace in the Medicine Wheel colors, but shift the colors around. Same colors, same numbers, different color sequence.


Different effect....

Weaving Peace in Arlee--day 2, week 3, panel 4

Here is the Salish word for Peace woven in Medicine Wheel colors.

Oops, I forgot to show you my very favorite part of weaving.... cutting off the warp


And my second favorite part: getting the first glimpse at what has been woven.

And another favorite part is taking an arty image of what has been woven.

And my not so secret passion of converting woven images into (I'm not sure what to call it), but I can't seem to stop.
