a pamphlet

Been recouping from a cold and chewing on some of the latest on line conversations and exchanges, while slowly stitching what has turned out as a statement. It was not intentional,i was trying to keep busy and not feel miserable while a warp hangs around waiting for its turn to be converted into reality.
As i said on line - this is not elegant, quoting myself :( -i do not care what i'm called whether be it artist, fiber artist or gift to the world. i don't even care what i call myself.
But it's fibers that i enjoy working with, that make me want to go into the studio every day, that encompass the lens through which i make literal and figurative connections, see, understand and express many things.
It dawned on me -excuse me if you already knew this- that while it's interesting ,because it's eccentric and could be even cute, that men endeavor in fiber related pursuits, the minute a woman takes a needle in her hand she starts losing IQ points. So we become apologetic. And develop cover ups and linguistic cop outs.
Therefore for those of you who are old enough to remember Marshall McLuhan
here you have in book form my take on him . Sorry Marshall!

the killing of the cream colored weft

Don't tell me this doesn't look better than this? Perhaps it has to do with envisioning something.The silk weft has a beautiful luster and is a good complement to the matte dark blue wool warp.And the color has the right amount of red.
Anyhow i think you have noticed there's a tendency towards aubergine color in this blog, haven't you?
