arrange whatever pieces come your way


Arrange whatever pieces come your way.
— Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

This temari is one of my favorite designs; it's not complicated (well, slightly tricky at the end), but it is time consuming. I do love how it looks when finished.

Thread wrap not visible. S6 division made with cotton packaging twine, for support. Wrapped with numerous shades of grays, reds, and black (no white, just very light pearl gray). The quote by Virginia Woolf is in the bell box along with brass rings that make a quiet traditional rattle. Circumference: 10 inches / 25.5 cm; diameter: 3.18 inches / 8.11 cm. Completed 13 October 2012 (no. 181).

Sold to benefit Kiva.org.
