HANDWOVEN FABRIC: Zlati's
dress and scarf are woven on a
4 harness loom with a reverse
twill threading. Her warp is
made up of 5 strands of
variegated yarn that is not seen
after the fabric is woven. The
weft is made up of several
strands that are used together
as one. Several strands of red,
several strands of white and
several strands of blue.
ZLATI - KEEPING FIT:
I designed, sewed,
stuffed, painted Zlati's
face and wove her skirt
and scarf on my loom.
Zlati loves to exercise
and keeps fit. She is
wearing her handwoven
skirt and scarf in her
favorite colors, red,
white and blue. These
colors stand for America,
the ountry she loves.
Zlati is named after my
daughter.
