Iris 4: Iris Dances Wool warp, hand-dyed wool weft 15 by 21 inches This tapestry also I wove sideways (from what is now the left side), easing the long wefts that now appear vertical. This technique resembles the wedgeweave of Iris 3, but here the blocks of stripes are woven at varying lengths and angles, making for a freedom of movement in the piece that pleases me greatly. The blossoms are woven in the vertical stripe, or raised outline, mode of Iris 2, but more freely, the dark and light wefts shifting in a checkerboard pattern. HOME NEXT PREVIOUS |
