The Ribbons For My Rug...

"Our Lives Are Woven Together For A Reason".For quite some time,that I wanted to show you how my rugs started with,right after I draw the design....I took theses 2 photos of the Fabrics ribbons...in summer,after i dyed them.As you can see there are so many shades of Greens...and actually there were even more,that you can't see here.Yesterday,or the day before,Christine post an image,as if to remind me of impresive glass artwork,i once saw in England...but it also reminds me of this...and..it also reminded me,i have to say thanks to a great lady from Englnad,for a Christamas card i recieved,few days ago...that lady who show me,how to make rugs...this is just a small example...to explain :"Our Lives Are Woven Together For A Reason".All the time that i'm here,i see symbolism...sometimes..its INTUITIVE...And sometimes i would call it inspiration.Lately...i made a collage of myself at Florence...I made it totally intuitively...after i finished it...I've noticed...symbolism to my inner thoughts,there at Florence...and...several days after,i saw a photo of trees...which..show me this intuition,even more. .....Rusty if you are here...by the way...YES,I believe your husband used to do such rugs,I will be happy to view,if you have still photos.

Ah! I see great beauty in this Nira...like undersea reeds and plants and ribbons of many thoughts and emotions...the blues flow so gracefully. I Know what you mean. I am glad you posted this...there is so much meaning in the smallest things...I try to look from the inside out so that I might know all things better and understand the weave of life and our love. I enjoy it very much and your words. This is just like your living Soul...I really think you are the Miracle Mermaid for you reach out in goodness to so many and it flows like the holy water of peace. I hope you are feeling better.

Wow!! I didn't know you dyed your own fabric ribbons......They are such wonderful bright colours!! I really enjoyed your words too!!

Artist Reply: Artist Reply: Yes,Deborah...most of the materials for my rugs I dye by myself.That means about 85% at least...most of the Wools...then i cut it to ribbons.I use also already made fabrics,if the colour,or effects are suitable for me.Each rug,is 2 weeks ,at least only for making the material to the rug...including dyeing and cutting.Thank you so much for this comment.
