How is it that I can be infinitely patient with weaving problems but not be able to handle sewing problems? I have been avoiding finishing my two new pieces all week. They came off the loom last Sunday. I finally forced myself to get to the first one today. And then I made the dumbest errors in logic, when I put the backing on. Well, anyway here is the finished "Rock Creek--April" with backing and finally photographed.
This is the one with the five weft colors: blue, green, brown, red and yellow. I hope you can see the rushing stream and rocks in the center panel. While I spent over a month reworking the design to simplify many areas, I still wonder if the design is not inherently too busy. But it is done at last, and that is nice.
Nice! Very successful and worth the wait. Great color palette, and intriguing combination of realism and geometry.
