The Magic of Re-purposed Paper @ 2QAQ

We had the pleasure of Robyn Woodrow as our guest speaker  at our July 2QAQ meeting. Robyn's work involved the recycling and re-purposing of paper - and this gown was no exception. Made from recycled encyclopedia pages the gown flows as it moves - so many question about the text and textures - an exquisite piece. Robyn, of Red Zebra Designs, also shared other paper creations including a bridal veil, shoes and an interpretation of community, created from thousands of rolled pages of print. We were also treated to stories from Morocco - a few of our group journeyed into the Sahara on a Moroccan Textile Tour - wonderful stories and textile experiences shared with our group. Thanks for a great afternoon!
