This topic is timely for me as I am leaving in two weeks for a months travel
in South East Asia. Contemplating that interminably long flight, I hadn't
considered taking some tabletweaving but thanks to this list, I will now
<g>. My friend and I are taking carry-on backpacks only but I am sure I can
squeeze a small TW loom in somehow. I really haven't done much brocade since
taking Nancy's class at Convergence (sorry Nancy), but what a great
opportunity to re-aquaint myself with the technique. I might even leave the
little board Nancy supplied in her workshop with my 'Foster Parent Plan'
family after my visit. But then I won't be able to weave on the trip home.
Sigh...
Also, is there anyone on the list that has traveled in Cambodia, Laos,
Thailand or Malaysia and who has a suggestion for "must see" textile places?
I will be visiting Jim Thompsons in Bangkok and Luang Pabang in Laos (which
is now declared a national heritage site), but that is about all I know
about other than antique shops. I would dearly love to find something
tabletwoven such as Linda's delightful bag (see her website) but have not
succeeded on previous visits.
