APM second progress report

Although this is not the piece used for APM exhibition I am still playing with it. 

Painted warp is woven with copper weft in pleats and a selection of different threads in the "squares"

Silk, metallic, rayon, wool and copper wire as weft threads

I also participated in CraftLab at ANU a few weeks ago and have started a stitched piece to follow up from that experience. 

Creating a ground (base) to work on.

 

The ground so far is linen, ends of a warp (wool and silk)  as padding  and an end of some weaving 

 I was trying to get the last of the warp woven with colour samples. There were to many threads going aery so I stop weaving. This is the very end colour sample with lime green silk and gold metallic thread on an Ikat warp.
