I am officially one third of the way through threading the loom! |
I chose an eight shaft pattern for this project, officially bumping up the shaft count by 4 from my previous record. I think that threading the loom is even more fun now! Reaching for the back headless reminds me of a book I read where a magician "Reached into the abyss to grasp the threads of time".
My personal threads of time :-) |
I read too much fiction, I know. The annoying thing is that I want to read that book again now, but I can't remember what it was... oh well.
Anyway, that memory and seeing parts of the warp secured on the reed gave me an idea for what I want to name the finished piece:
"Air, Earth, Fire, Water... Threads". A bit of fantasy never hurt anyone... right?
A perfect title ...
ReplyDeleteYou might appreciate this quote from "Ruined by reading" by Lynne Sharon Schwartz :
"I don't remember much of what I've read. My lifelong capacity for forgetting distresses me. I glance at a book on the shelf that I once read with avid interest ... and while I struggle for the details, all I recall is the excitement of the reading."
Ha! That quote fits me perfectly! The upside is that rereading books is just as much fun as the first time because I never remember the plot. ;-)
