If I had a loom, I'd loom in the morning and I'd loom in the evening


I took a weaving class when I was in primary school and absolutely loved it.  Since then, I have always had an appreciation for fiber art.  Just yesterday, I discovered the incredible textile works of Danish artist Anette Blaesbjerg Orom.  You have to click on the close-up photos on her website to truly appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry of her designs.  I just love the color combinations and the variety of yarns and threads in each piece.  Very contemporary, yet timeless.

Here are a few examples of her beautiful art.
