Like the others this is roughly two feet by five.
wool on wool, some silk for faces, all naturally dyed
this one ended up getting more modern touches then the other – the subject matter rally lends itself

This blog is solely for textiles, with a little bit of silversmithing now and then, and will mainly be for my historical stuff.
Please do not use my images or pin them without permission.
My interests range from ancient greek to tudor periods, and I tend to be an artisan rather than an academic - not that I don't do research, I just prefer getting my hands dirty.
I dye, spin, weave, sew and embroider, and have been doing so for several decades...
If you click on the thumbnail images in this sidebar, they will take you to tutorials and finished pieces
So beautiful. Just love it.

Amazing! Exhilerating! Rock star imbued! I was about to ask why the grumpy pot middle right with one leg is so irate, but then I realized he wants to listen to his own music. May I share this image with my nerdy mates?
