Your tapestries are marvelous - you have woven so much already in the new year! Your images are rich and luscious. I especially like the controlled hues of the diary. The blues and yellows blend in such a lovely way. I can't wait to see what happens when the reds and violets begin!mleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07036171621000871356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2561269088778501215.post-46054251187745465832013-01-25T17:17:34.335-08:002013-01-25T17:17:34.335-08:00Hi Susan, those circles are magnets .

They are placed in pairs one in front and another behind the cartoon and then by moving the one in front I can place them wherever I need them and move them along as the weaving progresses. They come in very handy! I am glad you like the Mango Hunters, thank you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879607915302977990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2561269088778501215.post-13747741607436124692013-01-25T16:50:11.705-08:002013-01-25T16:50:11.705-08:00We always have music on when we weave.

Music keeps us relaxed and our selvedges more even. I think our bodies go with the flow of the music. What are the things that look like thumbtack heads in your weaving do? Also, the colors are superb in the Mango piece. Very pleasing to the eye and senses. Always a joy to be allowed to share your weaving experiences.<br />Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17700601985117262985noreply@blogger.com
