Thanks for the comments and thoughts. Y...Hi All...<br />Thanks for the comments and thoughts. Yes, Lyn, I've hoped to exhibit with others who are doing similar things. Jan is one who has been doing the diary since last year and I love hers!<br />I've just learned about someone else today, too... and had no idea she'd been working on a weaving daily; got to get in touch with her. She's not a tapestry weaver but does quite a bit of mixing of media with her work<br />Jan, yes, a linen warp and I don't know if I'd have left empty warps of cotton seine twine or not because of the color. I love the color of linen. Nice thought about it being a physical description of the year... hadn't considered that but it is indeed that. I don't see the empty warps as empty days, by any means, but they are times away from home, family, studio... mostly all good times away but all the same, I love home, family, studio and like to be here!Tommye McClure Scanlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09816922767294739515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716048807398679258.post-30517970202579655292011-01-08T15:44:59.892-05:002011-01-08T15:44:59.892-05:00I love how this diary is a physical description of...I love how this diary is a physical description of the year....there is a pattern to your comings and goings!

Jan Austen, for one, & other weavers who don't blog, but have been weaving diaries (I'm quite sure Janie is) inspired by yours? Could the exhibit be in a physical location & also exist as an online exhibit via ATA's website? I think it would be a powerfully tangible message regarding time & what we do with it as individuals, which seems to have less & less meaning as our world becomes more electronic. "Electronic" as in all this technology we have which should give us more time, but which in reality steals it away from us (like this computer I need to get off of NOW!). Food for thought...<br />Lynlynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07680727252540559507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716048807398679258.post-91344427016119975682011-01-05T18:31:26.396-05:002011-01-05T18:31:26.396-05:00I really like the open areas, it is fabulous that ...I really like the open areas, it is fabulous that you were doing such 'weaverly' things and that you will put that information with the piece when you exhibit.sue schwarznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716048807398679258.post-2994924684041422272011-01-05T18:00:54.280-05:002011-01-05T18:00:54.280-05:00Thank you for the photo of the total tapestry.
