In the Studio

Spool Rack
This is a sequence of photos showing the various steps in weaving a tapestry as well as photos in the studio. The thinner yarns are on the spool rack for easy blending either together or with the thicker yarns in the shelves along the wall. All are fine quality wools.
#1. For this particular tapestry, I painted a landscape and then
made a copy of a small section and then did a yarn study in preparation for a tapestry. A full size drawing called a cartoon
is done as a guide for the actual weaving.

#2. The tapestry is on the loom and
being woven with the cartoon behind
the weaving as a guide.

another tapestry at the same time
since my loom is wide enough.
