I'm super excited to announce that I'm going to be exhibiting at the Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show next week. SCAD is sending a handful of fiber grads and metals and objects students to the show to share a booth. I've been busy for the past couple weeks getting some of my weavings prepped and ready to go. A few of the pieces I'm bringing are samples that I've shared before, spruced up and framed, but a couple are brand new pieces from earlier in the semester. If you're going to be at the show come by and say hello!

This last piece is a sample of my lastest explorations, using an iron warp on a tapestry loom. It's a much slower process, but I can control the threads on a whole different level. Having the threads cross the warp at an angle and on a curve for example.
I've also purchased a new camera since my last post, hopefully you can see an improvement in the quality of the photos I'll be posting from now on!
