Scandinavian Weavers Retrospective – Judy Larson

Judy Larson: I love discovering the surprises as colors interact.  Weaving changes planning and logic into enjoyable art! There are always new surprises and techniques to discover.

Read about the latest exhibit of Judy’s work in these two articles: “Celebrating a Staff Member and an Artist Member,” and “Member News: Hudson Hospital Exhibit.”

Blue Nicross 2014
Rutevev (Square weave)
Cotton warp, Cotton fabric strip weft, 42″ x 42″
This is inspired by a traditional coverlet in the Vesterheim collection, and interpreted with fabric strips.  Using small print fabrics added more interest to the design.

Holiday Monksbelt
Monksbelt (also known as tavlebragd in Norwegian)
Perle cotton, 15 x 25″
Using 3/2 Perle cotton in holiday colors in the warp gives a 3-D effect to the monksbelt pattern.
