I am preparing for a new project, way to ambitious for my skills. I know I will struggle and partly fail, because I don’t have a clue on how I will weave some parts of the piece. Even the beginning is a mess, with erratic heddles and curvy foundation. I don’t care, my only challenge…

I was lucky enough to buy those beautiful tools from Millissa Dewey and Jim Hokett, from the US and Dave Brown from Australia. But I noticed those skilled makers were all three in their seventies. Who are the new craftsmen and women? Where are they? If you you one, let me know. Qui connait la…

Et pour vous, mes amis français, un résumé de tout ça : la vie est courte, et il y a des tas de choses que j’ai envie de faire et de partager, alors je me lance dans ce blog, on verra bien.
