Midnight Musings

 

So I couldn't sleep last night and I started thinking about my ~6x6 mini-tapestries.  I was experimenting with weaving from the back (regular tapestry weaving) instead of my uber-textured weaving from the front.  I got plexi looms so I can check on my progress from the back when I remove the cartoon.

They're just the perfect size for ATA's unjuried shows and I'm thinking of entering one of them (if they fit the time period requirements).  https://americantapestryalliance.org/exhibitions/unjuried-small-format-tapestry-exhibition/

I missed this year's deadline, but maybe next time.

My favorite mini-tapestry is the paleo horse on the flame rock face.  I'm thinking of Paleo Pony: By Firelight.  Or some such title.  Painted Pony By Firelight?

 

Also thinking of calling them collectively Textures (especially if I weave them from the front with goo-gaas).

Also wanted to record the idea of printable cloth for tapestry labels. www.amazon.com/Avery-Printable-Fabric-Printers-03384/dp/B0000C0CJZ/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=printable+fabric&qid=1598023776&sr=8-5#
