Louise Nason Artist in residence.
My new warp is threaded on the loom and I have started weaving. This warp is looking at more technical weaving structures. I am weaving a double cloth. This gives me the ability to weave a tube. Once woven you essentially end up with a tube with no seams. It is one continuous thread woven back and forth on top and underneath round and round.
I was inspired to weave this by some of the church architecture the big tie beams in particular.
Just wanted to give a web address which really intrigued me.

It is prada’s new project with architect Rem Koolhaas. The structures and the way he has thought about the display of the costumes are rather amazing and inspiring take a look.
