I was reminded that today is 25/2/25. I looked at my last post and it was early January!
I have been doing some textile stuff, obviously not enough to inspire me to post.
However ... I went to the Handspinners and Weavers Guild today and gave them our Witch tapestry. It was done over a period of time that coincided with Covid lockdowns but we somehow managed to get it to enough people to finish it. The guild has recently had an exhibition up of works from their collection. It inspired me to contact the people who participated in the challenge. We have been wondering what to do with our group piece - no-one was especially keen to have it to themselves, so I proposed giving it to the guild for their collection. They accepted!! The guild accepted! Very pleasing.
On another note, I am currently trying to finish a fabric book that I started in a workshop with Ro Bruhn. It has been lying in a box for a while (since 2021). I am trying, very slowly, to downsize and get rid of bits and pieces - it is very hard!! The Alcove Art shop is going to take part in an exhibition that is about repurposing textiles and this seemed like a great way to progress. I can, hopefully, finish the book and have something in the exhibition.
So I am going through some old experiments and am trying to put them together to go in the book. It is satisfying, in one way, but also makes me see that I have a lot of stuff that I should/could get rid of.
I am also continuing to go to the small group that meets fortnightly to do some paper collage. I am trying to keep up but am finding my inspiration is not that high at the moment.
I am also trying to do some more Zentangle/doodling and took a photo recently in the hopes that it will inspire me! It was of the sun shining through glass bricks - I was at the dental specialist so was happy to see something good to distract me!! (Nothing to worry about, at the moment, with the teeth!)
