On this day
Joseph-Marie Jacquard, (born July 7, 1752, Lyon, France. He was the inventor of the Jacquard loom which could weave those beautiful intricate patterns and thereby created the forerunner for the modern automatic looms. I love the fiber arts, so this seems appropriate to me. No music, though.

Fiber Arts are pretty neat. I did a minor in Fiber Arts as part of my undergraduate degree many years ago. for me it was mostly paper making.

Oh yes, I took I course in papermaking and art book creation. That was as part of a summer-long writing course
I still remember the instructor .used a blender to combine the paper slurry. Later that day, I saw the same blender in her kitchen used for daiquiris. She swore, it was only the same model.

@Spinliesel thats great. that's what I did with all the paper I made. made books.

@hankster And what did you writer or draw in them?

@Spinliesel I used one for a Letterpress class I had later. gave a couple away or traded them for other art stuff. I think I did use one for a SketchBook.
