Woman vs Machine

I've been thinking about what Taueret said, that she aims to weave things that look like "a human made it". I believe one of my goals is for the cloth to look like they were machine-woven, run of the mill, "perfect". They never are, but I have rigid aesthetics for my own pieces, which may be alleviating the chances for something spectacular.

I have in mind something rather uncharacteristic for SSVE. But must get the fine warp project finished first.

I understand why you want the illusion of perfection, but honestly it's knowing YOU,a human did them that is the perfect bit.

Thank you, Babooshka. I'll have to think about this one as it is a very difficult point in my attitude toward my work.
