    You can get a yellow orange color from turmeric and a deeper rust from henna, blue can only be obtained from woad or indigo, there are numerous ways to make a green. I'd love to see you try again

    • @IfOnlyApril
      @IfOnlyApril  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Susy! Thank you for your kind words. In general the length of the thread could be calculated (x4 of the length you need). So I'd say for 30" length, you'd need to cut it at 120". As for the width, try to hang the treads on the dowel and see when you want it to stop. I'd say for 45" you'd need 90 threads but this is from the top of my head. I hope this helps

    I like what you did but find some things like the weaving, you are talking about the colours but not explaining how you did the weave. You explained the square knots but I already learned that from the plain square knots. I am trying to figure out how you did the horizontal larks head?? in the purple (it was that dull beige colour before you changed it)

      Hi Ingrid! I think I mentioned it in the video, but here is what I wrote on my blog:
      Before you start, calculate how long you want the macrame wall hanging to be. Usually, you’d need to take the thread at least 4 times longer. My final macrame is 20” till the fringe so you’d need threads in about 80”.
      I hope this helps!

      I came across an image online a long time ago and it was stuck in my head, so when I decided to give a try to macrame, that image popped up in my head and inspired me to make this one, while playing with natural dyes for rope.
      Tamar, as I can see now, is an incredible macrame artist with a lot of inspiring work. Let’s be honest, the macrame that I made is not comparable to Tamar’s and doesn’t lessen the value of her work.
      I contacted her about this and waiting for her response.
      I always give credit to the source of my inspiration so I’ll make sure to add Tamar’s information in description for anyone who is interested in purchasing her macrame.

    • @nancyhendy2081
      @nancyhendy2081 4 роки тому

      I am sure you'd do that, that's why I wanted to tell you, so that you'd contact her. This way it's way better, as her designs are well known, so people who don't know you can misunderstand you.
      Well done for you, and well done for doing all the colors using natural ingredients

    • @lejlaj876
      @lejlaj876 4 роки тому +1

      Tamar's designs are amazing and everyone should use their own creativity, but the types of knots etc in macrame are limited. I.e., no one artist has a monopoly on them. All the knots in April's piece have been used in one form or the other since at least the 70's.
      What you are stating is akin to suggesting that no one should do a pastel painting except the very first person that painted one & that they should never paint one without crediting the original painter every time.... All artists take inspiration from one another but they should put their own spin on it:)
