Warp for 4 towels using an alternating thread gradient for a very smooth color transition vs solid stripes. I plan to change the treadling so each towel has a different weft pattern. My color choices were partially inspired by a poster I designed years ago. #handwoven #handweavingacademy #mymindseye

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.
