Default New secret wish (not OT)

I'm loving this weaving class. So now I have a new secret wish. I want
to weave a long piece of linen or cotton/linen mix, cut it in chunks,
dye the pieces and turn it into a quilt. Yes, it sounds nuts. But I am
sort of falling in love with the idea. Gonna have to think on this
one.......

If you can find this at the library, it might inspire you!Jinzenji
works more in silk, but she writes wonderfully about dyeing her own
and about her artistic journey.

Start a blog on this!

Yes, she's one of my heroes. I love her work, everything she does is
just perfect in simplicity and beauty. I have this dream of traveling
to Bali to her studio just to watch her work. LOL.

Sunny--I have many huge hand woven linen table cloths and have thought
of doing the same thing--so far its a thought. The best of luck--I
know it would work well.
