I imagine that he is an inspiring teacher.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879607915302977990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716048807398679258.post-38180973054130415912013-01-17T16:58:13.037-05:002013-01-17T16:58:13.037-05:00Wonderful!

It is Scrub Oak. I'm going to be taking some photos in the next day or so and I'm shoot a detail and email it to you then.K Spoeringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692584187798649701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716048807398679258.post-10528398438939255702013-01-17T13:14:00.266-05:002013-01-17T13:14:00.266-05:00Yes, it does slow it down a bit!

But there's so much of that blue that having the lines to put in give me some "entertainment" while weaving inch after inch of the same thing!<br />Which of your pieces did you use the random soumak lines in? Is it at your website? I'd love to see it.Tommye McClure Scanlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09816922767294739515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-716048807398679258.post-75822478541864173492013-01-17T13:05:53.041-05:002013-01-17T13:05:53.041-05:00Love this palette, Tommye!

This piece will be stunning.<br />I did a large tapestry with random soumack lines in the background years ago, because I was just tired of having so little texture show. I loved the effect, but it sure slowed the (already slow) weaving down! Which is why I guess I've not done it since then. Your piece may inspire me to try it again - on a smaller scale than I did then, though.K Spoeringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07692584187798649701noreply@blogger.com
