Fabric Weaving

 Devora gave a Lunch and Shmooze demonstration of fabric and/or paper weaving yesterday.

And it got the creative juices flowing.

She demonstrated a weaving she was doing, using a practice piece from another workshop as the warp (vertical lines).  I got to thinking about some duppioni silk pieces I had snow dyed several years ago.  I never did anything with them because the colours weren't as vibrant as I had anticipated.

I pulled out the snow-dyed pieces, backed them with iron on lightweight interfacing (the ironing didn't totally adhere...), cut them into 1/2" strips and wove away.

This is the finished product:

I will add, when my cellphone recharges, photos of similar whole pieces before cutting up.

Now what to do with it?
