Monica Glasses

Hello. To create my artwork, I use an upright weaving wooden loom, I use handmade weaving tools that I purchase from vendors, and I use commercial Brown sheep wool, mohair, Churro wool and 3-ply warp for my textile weavings. I handspun and double the yarn for the side wraps. I sometimes handspun yarn to make it into the size that I need. For most of my pictorial weavings, I first sketch out the object and go from there. And for my purses, I use wool, 3-ply warp, fabric, a magnetic button and I use a sewing machine for the fabric lining.
