Ok, I’ve been offline for a long time. Life got in the way. Some good and some bad , but I’m going to try to get back in the groove of posting more often. These Rep weave pieces were woven with the warp from Rosalie Nielson’s workshop last October.( I don’t yet have another warp on that loom.) They were all done using the same tie-up. The different looks were created using treadling variations and weft differences. The first is a traditional rep weave, an original design. Applying the design tools learned in Rosalie’s workshop made creating an original design a breeze.
This runner does not have the thin weft in between each thick weft. It gives a totally different look. The weft is also half the thickness as the traditional rep runner. Below is a close up of a sample piece with this technique.
I’ll close with these Spring flowers from a recent trip to the Dallas Arboretum.

Wow! These are very interesting as well as beautiful. I have followed her work and would love to have attended the workshop.

Judith, Our workshop was the first she had done sharing the design tools. In the near future she will be publishing a book with the techniques. But nothing is like a good workshop.

Good job on designing a totally different looking piece.

Thank you. I find if I use some of what I learn in a workshop again I’m more likely to use the techniques again

I especially love the traditional version but it’s interesting to see the other as well–I didn’t know that was even an option! I really want to learn rep weave
