Butterfly tapestry...

...seen in a showcase window at Russellville Park. Captured for

Window Wednesday. HWW everyone!

 

This handwoven piece is the work of Dodie Gannett, late wife of a Russellville resident. She was a teacher and co-founder of the Damascus, Oregon Pioneer Craft School. It was woven on a floor loom. The background is natural linen and the butterflies are created by inlaying silk and wool.
