The cover has some Yemeni jewellery which relates to a feature article, and at the top of the photo is a tablet woven belt. Has anyone seen this, and does anyone lnow anything about it? The belt is not referred to in the article which is about the jewellery.
I haven't seen the magazine -- is the belt is anything like the tablet-woven dagger belts from Yemen? There is a description of these belts in the Tablet Weaving Gallery on my website <www.lindahendrickson.com> written by Marta Colburn, who travels frequently to Yemen, as well as photos of pieces that she owns. I have also included Peter's description from TTW on how the draw apparatus is used for weaving the brocade.
