I was so upset when Ruth Bader Ginsburg died this year. This has been such a difficult year for everyone in so many ways and we needed Ruth more than every. She will be the second of my powerful women series. This time not chronological but timing is everything. I chose her iconic photograph in her SCJ robes with her “dissent” necklace as my image. But I realized from the beginning that I couldn’t weaver her necklace and do it justice (pun intended) I decided to weave her black robe and then crochet the neclace and stitch it carefully on top of the tapestry. I am going to do it in greyscale again, this is becoming one of my favorite things to do. BUT I’m going to weave her green earrings in color. I just love the idea of those big green circles popping out of the tapestry. She’s going to have some bling!
