"The day will come
when you will review your life
and be thankful for every minute of it.
Every hurt, every sorrow, every joy, every celebration,
every moment of your life will be a treasure to you
for you will see the utter perfection of the design.
You will stand back from the weaving and see the tapestry,
and you will weep at the beauty of it"
~Neale Donald Walsch~

I love reading about traditions , folklore, mythology and culture .
I once read about weavers leaving little gaps in their weavings to let the soul out.
Gaps found in their woven blankets were not 'flaws' but tiny little soul spaces … Oh how I love this!
I think of this when creating my *wild weavings*

A beautiful weaving. I have always wanted to try this. I would have to purchase all the yarn. I don't use it normally since I don't crochet or knit.
The quote goes beautifully with the weaving too.
thank you Lisa ~ it's a great way to use up bits and pieces of wool, but if you don't have any you could use ribbons, raffia and twines and tuck in twigs & dried flowers/foliage from your garden. I made my "loom" by hammering a dozen nails into the backside of a small stretched canvas 1/2" apart. Hope this gives you some ideas :-)
