it's already been six months since Misao's Memorial in Izumi. At a recent study visit to SaoriNoMori I was pleased to see the beautiful tribute to Saori's visionary founder, lovingly placed in the middle of the studio, right on the weaving floor and with a rotating scheme of hundreds of worldwide weavers' handwoven tribute cloth, including some pieces by Freeweaver students. In total, 17 such panels were constructed during the memorial ceremony.
