Inspiring quote...

It’s all coming together… my interest in the Bauhaus, Japan, Saori, fibers spun and woven and knit…

I wanted to share this inspirational quote I found in an article about the work of Lenore Tawney…

“As I was weaving, the warp began to hang in places looser than the woven part. I thought to myself, it won’t be any good. Then I thought, But I don’t have to show it to anybody; it’s just for myself. And I felt so free! I did as I wanted. And when I took it off the loom and threw it on the floor I felt that tiny click near the heart that meant: It was not bad. So I learned in that piece that I had freedom to do what I wanted.”
