Here is the completed basic sampler.
It is very obvious that the sides pull in right where I wove the circle. I used 8 strands of the Australian Tapestry Workshop dyed yarns up to that point and then added a different yarn for the circle. I think I should have used more of the black/lurex yarn because after the circle the sides go back out again.
My landscape is very simple, leaves against a two colour background. I used some oddments from my yarn stash for this. I wanted to try a different textural look and also get away from the original colours.
At least there's plenty of room for improvement!
Pretty good, Christine.
ReplyDeleteI especially like the leaves. You are going to be one of the bush theme weavers, are you?
