Tree of Life - Diary of a Tapestry

The Tree of Life is a 3metre x 5.5metre tapestry designed by tapestry weaver Cresside Collette for the RMIT Spiritual Centre. It incorporates leaf elements from staff and students of RMIT and is being woven by a team consisting of three professional weavers and a number of volunteers. This blog records the progress of the weaving.

OOPS! I must be out of practice! Sorry about that and for not posting for a while. Hoowever I have been taking photos and so this post will be to show you what has been happening since September.The top left picture shows Sue working on the spacing of the warps. This photo was taken on the 17th September. The other three were taken on the 15th October and show howit has progressed. The one of the board shows the completed designs for the three tapestries and are made up of a collage of photographs of the three campuses of RMIT - City campus, Brunswick and Bundoora. I'm having a bit of trouble getting the pictures to stay put in the right order so I think I'll close this post and put the next lot in another.
