Tapestry Weaving and Textile Arts in Aotearoa. Information and Updates From Stephenie Collin. Monday, September 19, 2011. Tapestry in the Making. These are the first couple of pics of the tapestry I will be documenting as I weave it. Full detail of the colour is going to be dictated by just how fussy I decide to be as time goes on. However it looks as though this left-hand panel will be following reasonably closely to the script. Photo 1 The very beginning. Links to this post. Franklin Annual Art Awards.

Tapestry Weaving and Textile Arts in Aotearoa. Information and Updates From Stephenie Collin. Friday, October 28, 2011. The weaving that didn't want to be woven! I have been thinking about the wisdom of sharing my recent disaster on the loom. After all, this blog is a showcase of what should be varied and interesting hand-woven tapestries that are worked smoothly from woe to go. This time it has gone from woe to woes. Should I be sharing my failures as well as the pieces that I am happy with? I have now ...

Tapestry Weaving and Textile Arts in Aotearoa. Information and Updates From Stephenie Collin. Wednesday, December 14, 2011. TAPESTRY LOOMS VERSUS JUST GETTING ON WITH IT. My work in the main, is woven on any one of my 3-4 looms which are 2-shaft, peddle operated, upright looms. They are all well and truly pre-loved and wonderfully functional. A new and larger specifically tapestry loom would be fantastic, but is not imperative for actually producing a hand woven tapestry. Comfort needs were likely to be.

Tapestry Weaving and Textile Arts in Aotearoa. Information and Updates From Stephenie Collin. Saturday, May 26, 2012. Warping up for more than one project. When it comes to warping up I tend to be a good planner, which ultimately allows me to be a very lazy warper. Here below is an example of 4 separate weavings that shared a wider warp. Note the spare warps between each individual weaving. Links to this post. Alan Measles Will Save Us. Alan Measles Will Save Us. A photo by gitamalhotra. Tapestry weaving...

Tapestry Weaving and Textile Arts in Aotearoa. Information and Updates From Stephenie Collin. Sunday, March 9, 2014. I have just begun working part-time again. As I don't have a rich husband, or wife either for that matter, I sometimes have to do this, not only in order to pay the bills, but more importantly, to keep my studio space going. March 9, 2014 at 7:35 AM. Iow, yay you! Whats most important in your art is what you need to preserve and develop. I sound very dogmatic, but really Im just passio...
