Amanda Rataj * Anja De Wachter * Niina Tanskanen * Anna Artmann
Thanks girls, 
for your big support!

Still some towels in my shop here...
 

THIS IS NOT A SCARF

It's linen, it's woven and I'm putting it in a frame.
Very curious about the result.
It's not a scarf, but what is it then? :-)

+ Check this article, about Snow Fabric in Japan:
“It is in the snow that the thread is spun, 
and in the snow that the weave is woven. 
It is the snow that washes and bleaches the fabric. 
Everything begins and ends in the snow. 
Chijimi fabric only exists because of snow: 
we may say that snow is the mother of Chijimi.”
+ the video...

++ And there are still some towels in the shop!

THIS WAS PREMIERE VISION

Jeffrey and me had an interesting time at the fair.
Good talks and business with new contacts from all over the world
and good talks with new colleagues.
We'll be back in february, so hope to see you there again! :-)

A SUMMER OF DRAWING - PREMIERE VISION

From 15 till 17 september,
you can visit me again at Première Vision Paris.
I have been drawing and painting
and printing and having fun in my new drawing room.
So I hope to see you at the fair to check out my print designs.

IN BETWEEN

This is the first time I made a scarf that isn't for summer or winter.
Something in between: very light, it has some wool in it, some linen and some silk.
It seems I am more and more become the weaver of birthday scarves.
This one is from a son for a mom.
I'm curious about her reaction...
:-)

Here a nice project to share, Soundweaving

CLOUDS IN MY COFFEE - CURTAINS

The coffeebar Clouds In My Coffee in Ghent
is opening a Bed&Breakfast very soon.
They needed some curtains and asked me to make a design
and my boyfriend Jeffrey is making them a cloudy sofa!
It's going to be a beautifull space
and I hope to share pictures very soon.
