I know, I know … the actual process of ‘sleying the reed’ isn’t as cool or sexy as it sounds, right??But it is what it is … basically, threading the warp threads through the reed to space them out evenly ;)I use a reed on my floor loom when I weave my scarves - but some fancy tapestry looms have reeds as well (not mine, mine are more basic!)OK, thanks for coming to my educational Ted talk, lol! :D

From spool of cotton to the backbone of scarves!This is called ‘measuring the warp’ - the warp is the thread that is put in the loom (when ‘dressing the loom’) under tension, to create the base for the fabric to be woven.This process really is like magic - who would have thought that measuring the warp is the starting point for ALL fabric, including the fabric you are wearing as you are reading this??You can find all the magical goodies I make HERE on my website!

Are you lucky?I personally believe that you are what you say you are.So if you say ‘I’m never lucky’, you’re right.If you say ‘I’m so lucky’, you’re right.You get to choose.How you see yourself plays out in your life.I created these works as a talisman, sigil, reminder … you are who you say you are.I see so many people using negative words to be ‘cool’ - it’s not cool to use positive words ;)I don’t care - even if it’s cheesy and uncool, here I am. Spreading good energy and vibes!This piece (and others) are available in my TEXTural exhibition...
