DAY 1
Step one was gluing down my 8" x 10" images onto large pieces of paper so they formed one large image. This was my old-school ghetto method which I have temporarily returned to...long story.
DAY 2
With a ruler and pen, I measured 1/4 inch strips on the backs of both pieces of paper.
Then the cutting begins. I only cut about ten strips at a time and then I have to give my hand a break. Cutting, weaving, coffee, cutting, weaving, coffee. This seems to be a comfortable rhythm.
With ten strips cut, I can begin weaving them. The below image is my "warp" and this is what I will weave my free-floating strips into.
