Notes: 

This banner was woven at the Blossom Festival on Salt Spring Island - celebrating the Cherry Blossom season.  The activities were raising funds for Japan for their recovery from the recent earthquake and tsunami.  I set up my Saori loom and invited people help to weave a banner for Sendai, Japan.  I also cut out some 'blossoms' for people to write messages on.

I took the finished banner to Hawaii to a SAORI Workshop to give to Kenzo and Naoto Jo - who were sending it on to the Saori studio in Sendai.  More details and pictures are on my blog...
