KLEUR PART ONE

Our theme: CMYK
These weavings will become something like this...
I'm allready working on Part Two.
And my boyfriend on Part Three!
:-)

SUMMERSCARF

Because of all the weaving for KLEUR,
I almost forgot to show you this summerscarf.

More news tomorrow about KLEUR,
I have been working very hard last week,
and still two more weeks to go.
It's the first time I have been weaving so intensely,
and I like it quite a lot. :-)

KLEUR SEPTEMBER BRUSSELS

A summerscarf that is finished.

Check the website KLEUR!

In september Jeffrey Vanhille, Studio Woot Woot, Eric Guen and me

are invading the shop La fabrika in Brussels

during Design September.

Jeffrey and I have been collecting nice old pieces of furniture

that we are going to refurbish in our own way,

and I will try to weave some wallpieces and cushions.

Lots of work,

but very exciting!

:-)

I will keep you posted!

WOOL CAN MAKE ME CRY

This was her wool.

And this was her tree.

This was Sandra.

I made her this bird. She knows why.

In memory of Sandra,

a part of my family,

a friend,

too young to die...

ENJOYING

Enjoying the weaving of a new summerscarf.

The weather hasn't been that great,

maybe better when this scarf is finished... :-)

There is enough warp on my loom for 2 scarves.
The first one is taken,
anyone interested in the second one,
let me know!

READY AND HAPPY

 

 

This nice couple asked me for a handwoven wallpiece

instead of a scarf.

This is the result.

It's quite a complex warp, 

(90 colours and many different materials)

but a simple technique of weaving.

I'm really happy with the result,

and so is the nice couple. 

And because of their question,

I found another way of using my handwoven fabrics.

More to come!

:-)

THE BOYFRIEND

Meet Jeffrey,
he's my boyfriend and he's an upholsterer.
Since the beginning of this year he has his studio in our house,
and you can see his stories here:

and he is also on facebook.

I'm telling you this,
because in september we have a plan.
Textiles and furniture!

But more about that later...
;-)
