This is a jacquard “edition” of the original weaving. Much like print making traditions, I have woven limited editions made at a more accessible price point.

It’s so pleasant to see my work at this scale with this interpretation. It makes me fantasize of being a part of a tapestry workshop and producing large scale works. This is now a rarity.

The colors differ from the original due to the set colors in the warp and weft. The warp is a multi color combination and the weft yarns are black and white. The weave structure determines how the hue appears.

The blankets are meant to be used functionally. They can be hung but I prefer these to be washed and loved for warmth and comfort.
 
I am only making five of these editions. 
 
The original tapestry of Drift + Seep and Salty Indigo Flax Sea were woven simultaneously and are related to each other. Both are woven with linen yarn and indigo-dyed wool in dripped shapes that resemble the place where the ocean water washes up and recedes back to the sea. Drift + Seep  is woven with commercial-grown and spun linen yarn. I wove these pieces side by side to visually compare the difference between "homegrown" and commercial linen yarn.
