These are every where on doorways both inside and out. I bought one for me and will hang it over my dressing room door. They come in all sorts of colors and I just love them!

Today I started a new quilt! I had to dye the fabrics and now I'm very excited to see how it turns out! The base for my idea came from the paintings of the robes the Buddhas wore, the colors are rust and a golden, very similar to the monks robes that they wear now. Ill keep you posted!

Im back from Bhutan! I had the most amazing trip, full of color, food, textiles and fun! Here are just a few pictures of some of the weaving I saw...... truly magnificent! I came home with 12 kiras, what the women wear. Most of the ones I bought are all cotton a few cotton with silk, the all silk ones cost between 1500 / 2500 dollars!!!! They are worth every penny.

I will be adding more photos as the week goes on but I just wanted to put something new up for you to see!
