    Well, as I’ve told you, I just love it!!! You have a great picture in your post of the art weave-but it still doesn’t convey the beautiful autumn colors, the patterns within the woven papers and the beautiful leaf in the center of it. What a wonderful wall hanging- so delicate- and a beautiful testament to the wonderful trust and souls of artists in blogland. Just want you to know how much I appreciate all of your craftsmanship and talent in making it. So many many thanks again!!! Jill


  7. I hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving, I wove some papers today… inspired by you! roxanne
