The rest of the story and photos of tea towels

The rest of the story first, and in a nutshell, I did get the plastic bag rug done, but it is UGLY. I mean, majorly ugly. I get to relearn again that if I use ugly materials, I get ugly product. The bags are orange with some forest green in the design. Ugly.

This was last weekend, and I was running out of time. I used the leftover section warp I still had on the loom, rethreaded it for my size, and made another piece, this time using recycled fabric. All the fabric I use in my rugs is recycled. This is some fabric from a local futon factory cutting floor. The piece turned out nicely, all papers, photos, etc. are in, and I'm done with that! When the website is up for the show, I'll post a link here.

As promised last month, here is a photo of the rose path tea towels.


Now that I have my art show entry done, I am warping the Hammett up for some more, you guessed it! Rag Rugs! I have some nice colors to work with, and it will be fun to make some spring-y combinations. Rugs will be my main focus for the next 6 months.
