These are two framed pieces handwoven in double weave, they are approx. 16"x18". Double weave is where you weave 2 layers of cloth on the loom at the same time, the color spectrum layer on top, the black layer on the bottom. The design is made by interchanging the layers. I've done quite a bit of this technique using pictoral images - very slow but very fun.....at some point I may post them.
