Sometimes simple is best, asthese two projects illustrate. Thestriking mat at left could foolmost of us at first glance, but itis merely log cabin with a clever
warp color order. Dusty blue
calico cloth adds yet moretextural and design interest—
one of the benefits of workingwith fabric weft. Our LogCabin Mats were designed and
woven by Joanne Tallarovic of
Tucson, Arizona.
Recycling used denim for the
background of our wall
hanging, Flight, is effective,
economical and simple. Coloredfabric "bows" woven in at
random in tatter weave lend
dimension, movement, interest.
One of the reasons this piece
works so well is that the designis so pleasing. We suggest you plan your piece before begin-ning to weave; using a cartoonwill ensure accurate executionof the design. Flight was
designed and woven by Inga
Krook of Sedona, Arizona.Instructions for Log Cabin Matsare on page 9; instructions for Flight Wall Hanging appear on
