Groovy Swedish looking flowers and green roses - two of the student projects during my first workshop on Frida Hansen’s wool open warp transparent tapestry technique. So fun!

People have asked whether Frida Hansen's wool open warp transparencies can be woven on a floor loom. Sure! But I wove a small transparency based on Hansen's Farmer's Roses pattern on a Baby Wolf to test it out for myself. There is a link to my notes in a new post at robbielafleur.com. #fridahansen #tapestryweaving #billedvev #vev #tapestry #contemporaryweaving #weaversofinstagram

People always ask of weavers, “How long did that take to weave?” Here’s a tiny answer, on one day, on one sample rose woven in wool open warp transparency technique. I wanted to finish this before my class starting this Thursday. Photo one: just a bit left to weave. Photo 2: one hour later. Photo 3: one hour and 15 minutes more. Weaving in the ends takes a bit of time! #tapestryweaving #fridahansen #vev #billedvev #vesterheimfolkschool #handweaving #weaversofinstagram

Super super weekend trip to Louisville, a nostalgia tour for Mike, who grew up there. #louisvillebourboninn

A sketch to a tapestry sample for my Frida Hansen transparent tapestry class. In-process photos and the final imperfect and colorful result. So instructional -- both for me and for the discussions I will have with my students at Vesterheim Folk School next week. This sketch from my grandson developed into a test of many different weft yarns. Sometimes the yarn was doubled, sometimes not; some yarn was fuzzy, other yarn had a harder finish. A fun test! #vesterheimmuseum #fridahansen #tapestry #taspestryweaving #billedvev #handwoven

I was searching for the digital museum photo of one of Frida Hansen’s transparencies, Rose Tree and Lilies of the Valley. I didn’t see it right away because in the museum photo, it is hung upside down! Full photos and more at robbielafleur.com. #fridahansen #tapestry #tapestryweaving #billedvev #vev
