Weavings as of March 2014























HELLO THERE!


We have been productive as the winter is coming to a close. Here are some of our newer weavings we thought would be worth posting up on our blog! This isn't everything, but we just wanted to show the time we spent these past few weeks experimenting with color, texture, technique, and most importantly...cabin fever.








At this very moment, Rosie and Andrea are experimenting with weaving into frames, wood, natural materials, and more fibers! 

Stay tuned and keep up with us on instagram to see our updates! :)
