THE MAKING OF OUTSIDE THE BOX 1

ANCHORING THE WIRE

Any start to a weaving begins with the anchoring threads, called the warp. I attached these in with brass to hold everything in place before beginning the weaving. And then it's just over under from there, over and over and over again.

While I have been weaving for years, I had this completely magical moment when I grabbed some of my kids' craft wire to see what I could do with it. It was such an inspired moment of color, of shape, and a frenzied, yet contained vibe. It was more that I could have hoped for, and I have been in love ever since. SOLD.
