Work in progress...




It is a little bit unusual (recently) for me to weave a picturesque tapestry. Although the cartoon behind the warp is somewhat realistic, I am not weaving a detailed picture ... I want to finish with a simple and somewhat rough tapestry... after all,  it is an old time image (1981). It represents me breast-feeding my daughter Weronika and the tapestry is supposed to be a wedding gift for her. She was married in December 2008. The cartoon was ready two years ago when she was engaged, but due to my allergies I had a hard time to begin. Now I am finally weaving it slowly, wearing a mask on my face and inhaling many antihistamine puffs...
