<> "Against Forgetting" is a fine art print of an original piece by Nina Montenegro. A wax rubbing of a tree stump is adjacent to an inked fingerprint. This piece has been featured in Orion Magazine, Camas Magazine, and High Country News. From Nina: I encountered an enormous stump on Orcas Island (likely a Doug Fir) and tenderly took a rubbing with wax crayon. I had always marveled at the similarity between the rings of a tree and the rings of our human fingerprints, but I was shocked to see the rings actually align when I took an inked fingerprint and enlarged it to the scale of the tree rings. What resulted was a harmonious depiction of humanity's kinship (and belonging) with nature.

Ik woon in een geeky huishouden! We hebben veel oude boeken en strips in de buurt. Wanneer de boeken of strips worden gescheurd, de binding breekt of de omslag verloren gaat, knip ik de pagina's in stukken en gebruik ze voor bloemen in plaats van ze gewoon weg te gooien. Kusudama ballen worden gemaakt door het vouwen van een enkel vel origami papier in een "bloemblaadje" voor de vijf bloemblaadjes bloem. Zodra vijf bloemblaadjes zijn gevouwen, worden ze gecombineerd met lijm van de bloem. 12 bloemen (60 bloemblaadjes) zijn nodig om de kusudama bal te maken. Dit prachtige kusudama balornament is gemaakt met een vintage Lord of the Rings boek (zou kunnen zijn van The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, of The Return of the King). De pagina's zijn prachtig verouderd. U kunt uw keuze van lint kleur kiezen!! Beschikbare keuzes zijn te vinden in het vervolgkeuzemenu van de accommodatie. Geef gewoon aan welke kleur lint u wilt in uw notitie aan de verkoper sectie of stuur me een konvooi alstublieft. Als er geen lint is opgegeven, wordt zwart gebruikt. Dit LOTR papieren bloembalstuk heeft een diameter van ca. 4 inch. Geschatte lintlengte is 3 inch. Dit zou een prachtig ornament, kamerdecoratie, kerstboomornament, decoratieve ventilatortrek, raamdecoratie of huwelijksdecoratie zijn. Dit ornament en alle items in mijn winkel zijn gemaakt in een rookvrij huis en studio. Er zal enige variatie zijn in de papier- en papierplaatsing die op elke bal wordt gebruikt, omdat de stukken handgemaakt en geplaatst zijn, dus verwacht wat variatie van de foto.**** Zie mijn andere origami stukken hier http://www.etsy.com/shop/Katiemommy?section_id=7047279 Terug naar Katiemade https://www.etsy.com/shop/Katiemommy?ref=hdr_shop_menu
I'm on a fool's errand - categorizing hexagons. But it keeps me entertained. The basic way to repeat a hexagon is in the form of a rosette of 7 hexagons, 1 ring around the center Here it is in my Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns as #160g. Names: A Honeycomb Patch from Hearth & Home magazine about 1910 Charm from Wallace's Farmer in 1929 and Simplicity's Delight in the Kansas City Star in 1946 Part of the repeat is how those rosettes are set together. You can just set one next to another... or set one hexagon between them, in this case a black hexagon. Or use two white hexagons as in this example from Laura Fisher. Or applique them onto a background. Here's a tiny scan of page 41 from Godey's Lady's Book in January, 1835, reprinting a picture from Eliza Leslie's American Girl's Book in 1831. The pattern was given 3 names then: "Perhaps there is no patchwork that is prettier or more ingenious … than the hexagon or six sided: this is also called honey-comb patchwork." This picture is so far considered the earliest picture of a patchwork pattern published in the U.S. Rosettes of seven hexagons set with a ring of white hexagons, which is a common set. In the 19th century white rings probably were the most popular, although that setting ring could be another color. #160k = 19 hexagons More names from my Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns Quiltmakers were likely to add another row to make 2 rings around the center hexagon, 19 hexies in all. This is #160k in my Encyclopedia You see it in 1826, as in his dated example from New Paltz Deyo house and the mid-20th century This may be the most common rosette Published names: About 1910 Hearth & Home magazine called it the Hexagon. But in the 1930s there's a trend to call it a garden in the agricultural magazines and pattern catalogs of the day. 1931 - Oklahoma Farmer Stockman called it Old Fashioned Flower Garden or Aunt Jemima's Flower Garden and advised yellow centers, with a ring of plain, a ring of prints and white paths or rings between the flowers. The next year the Rural New Yorker called it Grandmother's Rose Garden or the French Rose Garden. About the same time the VerMehren pattern company in Des Moines called it Martha Washington's Rose Garden or the Martha Washington Quilt. These various flower garden names evolved into Grandmother's Flower Garden, probably established by designer Ruby McKim who showed the rosette design with 4 rings ( 37 hexagons) set with a ring of white. McKim's set was not a new idea. Above a date-inscribed quilt, 1807, by Abigail Hunt in the collection of Old Sturbridge Village They actually have two of these, indicating the first burst of popularity of the design. One reason it was called Grandmother's Flower Garden over a century later when the granddaughters of the original makers rediscovered the pattern. Carrie Hall's blocks labeled Grandmother's Flower Garden in the collection of the Helen F. Spencer Museum of Art at the University of Kansas. She set the rosettes with a single green hexagon. Above and below-20th-century versions. From Vintage Blessings Early 19th century? English? You can go on and on, adding rings. Although we won't. At least for today. http://barbarabrackman.blogspot.com/2015/09/civil-war-patchwork-hexagons-for-re.html
