Squares • 1996
Two Paintings, Minneapolis Institute of Arts, are the inspiration
for weaving a number of small square designs.
Woven with pickup. Notice that the weaving is mounted be-
tween two matboards with rectangular openings so that both sides of the weaving can
be seen.

Spiral• 1994
Supplementary warps and wefts as well as pickup techniques
are used for the first time to add design to a weaving. The supplementary warps and
wefts are woven between the two layers of double weave until they are brought to the
top layer.

Squaring the Square• 1998
In the early 1900’s, a mathematician proved that 21 squares, each
of a different size, is the minimum number of squares required to form one large square.
Double weave utilizing pickup techniques is the answer for weaving this design. Also a
22nd square can be added to make a window design.
Three ways to complete the weaving come to mind. The first
requires 22 different warp/weft color combinations using four colors in the warp and the
same four in the weft. The second is based on the four-color map theorem.
A third possibility adds grid lines around each of the 21 squares
and allows a design that would present Mondrian type grids. A moment’s thought shows
that this is not a viable method since mathematical lines have no thickness while woven
lines do. Many of the squares become distorted into rectangles which no longer squares
the square. Nonetheless grids in the style of Mondrian are possible.

Mondrian Grids • 1998
The painting by Mondrian called Grid with Blue Rectangle served
as the inspiration for this group of weavings. Through the use of supplementary warps
and wefts, color is added to a variety of the grid areas. Pickup techniques are required in
many of the weavings.

Arizona Canyon I • 2000
The first of two weavings where two warps and three wefts
are used. The development of a gradation of colors from yellows to reds against a back-
ground of dark blue is the basic idea for this design. In the pattern sections, two wefts in
various yellow, orange, or red colors are woven in the same shed for the gradation while
the dark blue weft weaves by itself for the background of the design. No pickup tech-
niques are required.

Arizona Canyon II • 2000
The second weaving uses the same yellow, orange, and red
wefts for the pattern and the dark blue weft for the background. But now, by the use of
pickup techniques, only one of the wefts weaves in the top layer in the right and left sec-
tions of the warp (and weaves with the dark blue weft in the bottom layer in the center).
The second colored weft weaves in the bottom layer of right and left sections of the
warp together with the dark blue third weft and then weaves by itself in the top layer in
the center.

Color gamps are fun to weave. Wouldn’t it be nice if these small
squares could be arranged in a variety of ways a la Agam? Well why not cut them into
small squares? And glue them on a wood backing? And glue a small magnet on the back?
The refrigerator is an ideal place to display the small woven
squares with their magnets, and friends can be invited to arrange and rearrange the
squares according to their inclinations.

Beads in double weave
Double weave, with its two cloth layers, offers an easy way to
incorporate beads in weaving. The beads are threaded on a “substitute weft” and used
instead of the usual pattern weft shuttle when a bead row is needed for the design. The
ends of this substitute weft are anchored in the bottom layer of the double weave.
Do you remember watching your mother work on an embroi-
dery sampler? You know: the alphabet and the numbers and various trees and f lowers.
Here’s a sampler in beads. In the original weaving the letter “Z” was reversed. No problem,
through the wizardry of digital photography and help from a friend, the letter Z is “f ixed.”
