Landscape Weavings


This is just a teaser taste of the wonderful landscape weavings created by my friend Keri's mom, Vi.  Vi passed away last year suddenly and left behind eight grandchildren, two daughters, their loving husbands and many, many friends and extended family who found this dear lady to be a bright, positive spot in the world.

Vi developed and exercised her love of yarn fibers into this beautiful work of art that she labeled "landscape weaving".  Keri is currently working to get some finished pieces of art up for sale at our Etsy shop and also an instruction book containing many how-tos for this wonderful craft.  For some of the landscape weavings, she even has kits with all the instructions and yarn needed to finish the project.  If you love crafting of all types just like me, check back as we’ll soon have some kits posted at the shop.

I've decided to link this project up to the The Minty Fresh Challenge over at the Moxie Fab World.   I suggest you join me in the fun!  If you don't make landscape weavings, make a card or other project using the color mint.  If you do make landscape weavings, please contact me so that I might marvel at your unique talent much as I do posthumously for Vi!  Then, if you have a minty project, link it up on the challenge.    

Thanks for looking at my *small* tribute to such a big life.
