Hi Everyone. I just thought I'd post here some of the technical information about the two tapestries I posted to Projects today. These are woven row-by-row, with all wefts moving in the same direction. This enables me to weave following a gridded pattern that I make on my computer. For this type of tesselation design, such precision is beneficial (necessary?) in order to follow the pattern and stay on the grid.
Making the pattern is not easy, as the image needs to tile the plane and of course still look like what it is supposed to be. It has taken a lot of reading and experimentation to get to the point where I'm at with it. The remaining 3-4 pieces I plan to do for this series will present new challenges I'm sure.
