Artist Statement | My plan going in was to complete a small block of weaving for each daily prompt and have them all come together in the end in a series of pieces I could hang on my wall.

The daily prompts were thought-provoking. I would read the email each morning, think on it throughout the day and weave at night. The challenge became a talking point in my office - each day people would ask me what the word of the day was and I'd show them what I'd woven the night before.

I found the challenge invigorating. I created every day. I used techniques that were new to me and materials I had not used before.
