Each day of the year I weave a small area. Sometimes it is simply a color block, while other times the day's entry might have other colors within it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485720055844-PL069UW39AQV70T8O115/Scanlin-TD-2009.jpg Tapestry diaries - Tapestry Diary--2009 My tapestry diaries date from 2009 and are an ongoing daily practice.

Later, I spent two weeks at an artist residency. There were other away-from-home times throughout the year, as well. However, the longest time I was gone was in November and December when I was at West Dean College in England, for six weeks of tapestry study. For my 2010 tapestry diary I decided to represent my "gone" times with empty warps. The color blocks of the days seem to float within the empty days of my travel... empty from my home but full of activity and adventure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485720179695-ONW6VYY0W5UV477IP89E/Scanlin-TD-2012.jpg Tapestry diaries - Tapestry Diary--2012 In 2102 I began to consider weaving imagery within each day and did simplified suggestions of hills, buildings, airplanes... and even a turtle I carried across the street one day. I can look back at the simple images I wove throughout the year and remember the event or the emotion I felt then.     https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485720294249-VDJC3A47UEDZMYSQP7ME/Scanlin-TD-2013.jpg Tapestry diaries - Tapestry Diary--2013 For 2013 I returned to a simple block of color with something slightly different being done with each month. I used hand dyed wool from a sample set made a few years before. My out-of-town days were shown by weaving linen in the space to fill those days... hence, the sprinkling of the linen/tan color throughout the year.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1481903890805-QHZC6YR7I92LTO90XW2Z/Scanlin_The+Greening_edited-1.jpg Tapestry diaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485720224268-SL9T4VR134SFSOK9HK44/Scanlin-TD-2014.jpg Tapestry diaries - Tapestry Diary--2014 For 2014, I continued to use up the dyed wool that remained from the previous year. I made a change of approach to the weaving each month, yet kept the methods within a weaverly approach in which I wove bands or stripes of colors, or made diagonal directions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1481751208581-DYJ34C1AKKO2S13EZ84M/2015.jpg Tapestry diaries - Tapestry Diary--2015 For 2015 I wove individual days, still as blocks of color--but I also wove during each week to show a version of something growing on our property during that season of the year. For instance, January began at the bottom of the warp with dried oak leaves that were still in our yard from the fall. February was represented by four different views of pecans... those were also still in the yard. There was an ice storm in March that brought down lots of limbs... hence, the sticks for that month. Each month brought its own challenge of finding an image that I could show in four different versions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485720254704-4XEIHXE00650WQ4PLSLG/Scanlin-TD-2016.jpg Tapestry diaries - Tapestry Diary--2016 In 2016 I simplified the image into a monthly one. For the year, I watched the season of change of the black walnut tree in our yard, and made a painting from an aspect of the tree at that time. I also dyed much of the yarn within the month areas with black walnut dye. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1606232558315-F8URGX4Y2AU65UZE50KV/image-asset.jpeg Tapestry diaries - Tapestry Diary, 2017 Handwoven tapestry, wool, cotton, metallic, linen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1481751054675-SCSILN05DTAX6UO38GWP/Scanlin_The+Greening_edited-1.jpg Tapestry diaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1606232643228-PT41ANVKRUPW2MTSGZEK/image-asset.jpeg Tapestry diaries - A Year of My Life: 2018 Handwoven tapestry with natural dyed wool weft and linen warp. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1606232761183-69JRR3W457EENQY0O5B1/image-asset.jpeg Tapestry diaries - Cutting off day (December 31, 2019) for the 2019 Tapestry Diary.

The sizes range from 48” x 2” to 7” x 4”. I used different methods each month, staying consistent to the theme for the month. By the end of the year I realized I preferred to have one entire tapestry to include all the days rather than having separate smaller months. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1752684336148-9XUNLX7SETXFQOVLJC31/Scanlin-Tapestry%2Bdiary%2B2023.jpg Tapestry diaries - A Year of Twigs—2023 Throughout the months of the year I found twigs to draw and paint.

Wildfires were spread throughout the southern Appalachians in the fall of 2016. Hambidge Center in north Georgia was near one of those and controlled burns were done nearby. During the worst of the fire threats residents and historical artifacts were evacuated from the Center for several days. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1488663907027-6KEH3TCDF5B7OE2R3O07/burned+fern.jpg Drawings and paintings - Burned Fern-Patterson Gap Road 30" x 22" Charcoal from back burn area, earth pigment. I rode along one area of controlled burn with Christine Jason from Hambidge Center. We stopped in several places to take photographs of the burned woods and so I could collect burned sticks to use for drawing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1488663937404-JAJ4JIO7J59BNYSJGXLT/leaf+burn-1.jpg Drawings and paintings - Leaves and char-Hambidge Center 22" x 30" earth pigment and charcoal from controlled burn https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1488663962911-BLZUVYAUOV3G9GJI7E25/leaf+burn-2.jpg Drawings and paintings - Leaves and char-Hambidge 22" x 30" earth pigment and charcoal from controlled burn https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1488663987784-4XYYXLIRAJ08CW603VGR/leaf+burn-3.jpg Drawings and paintings - Leaves and char-Hambidge 22" x 30" earth pigment and charcoal from controlled burn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1488664010369-KEDSLK3DGBTLE3817336/leaf+burn-4.jpg Drawings and paintings - Leaves and char-Hambidge 22" x 30" earth pigment and charcoal from controlled burn https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1488664033182-0LJXULJ1H7PF5QYPCCGK/leaf+burn-5.jpg Drawings and paintings - Leaves and char-Hambidge 22" x 30" 2016 earth pigment and charcoal from controlled burn   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1488664056651-29FKE5DSETWYBD8SUI6E/leaf+burn-6.jpg Drawings and paintings - Leaves and char-Hambidge 22" x 30" 2016 earth pigment and charcoal from controlled burn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1518022037036-V8Z6QMX1ZQLDOIKVWDL3/eight+leaves.jpg Drawings and paintings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1518022078763-21PSS7NKGOK7O6Y9PHL2/five+leaves.jpg Drawings and paintings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1518022123320-ACX4MV0UZKU22MB7JEGP/hickory+and+red+leaf.jpg Drawings and paintings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1518022178413-J8R2E9IFO1RFAWEBCU5V/oak+leaf+cluster.jpg Drawings and paintings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1518022224112-IDPG7YRH3SWFTSBPL5D5/oak+leaf-orange.jpg Drawings and paintings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1518022271280-R02JG8U6BIIJ0806IL8F/thirteen+leaves.jpg Drawings and paintings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1518022315376-DL0K40MYINPNZAC3JXPF/three+oak+leaves.jpg Drawings and paintings https://www.scanlintapestry.com/about daily 0.75 2023-03-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1481750648905-LDMZ0VHRWL50ENP7OGV2/image-asset.jpeg About my work https://www.scanlintapestry.com/resume daily 0.75 2025-07-16 https://www.scanlintapestry.com/new-page-1 daily 1.0 2017-01-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1482432834887-Y3121YQ6VEGSCX0ZYNEK/Flight-1500.jpg Welcome https://www.scanlintapestry.com/the-making-of-a-tapestry daily 0.75 2017-01-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485394275938-FDX868SLCJB0B78CCSFK/assorted+images.jpg The making of a tapestry These are a few of the paintings I did based on the photos of the burned woods. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485619478352-VDBYF3KQNHP0WLPJS4I4/wildfire+tapestry-progress-1-27-17.jpg The making of a tapestry This tapestry is about the wildfires that swept through areas of the Southeast in the United States in late 2016. Thousands of acres of wooded land were burned and at least fourteen people lost their lives. Many more lost their homes and businesses in some of the most devastating of the fires in the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1485394213990-T48GBC13KZANSRODNWV1/Hambidge-burned+leaves2.jpg The making of a tapestry This is one of many photos I took of burn areas. https://www.scanlintapestry.com/new-page daily 0.75 2020-11-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/1605114194342-DJBWPO4WCXRBWTLAINWK/The+Nature+of+Things+-+Front+Cover+06.2020.jpg My book, The Nature of Things: Essays of a Tapestry Weaver https://www.scanlintapestry.com/new-page-3 daily 0.75 2022-02-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/78208941-b42b-4b03-acae-6e3df79e9003/TDB-cover.jpg Tapestry Design Basics and Beyond: Planning and Weaving with Confidence - Make it stand out My book about design and how it applies to tapestry was released by Schiffer Publishing in June 2021. Now in the second printing, the book is based on many years of teaching art and design at the University of North Georgia, and also in workshops and short classes. I’m grateful to all of the tapestry artists who shared their work for the book, and to Rebecca Mezoff who wrote the foreword. https://www.scanlintapestry.com/new-page-5 daily 0.75 2025-11-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58505a83f7e0abd292658033/689d291a-e224-45a0-b384-527ecb59b632/cover+of+marking+time+copy.jpg Marking Time with Fabric and Thread: Calendars, Diaries, and Journals within Your Fiber Craft - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
