This 27" x 32" raft is made of cotton rope of varying thicknesses. I wrapped each"log" 3 times in strips of fabric and many textile oddments some of which were given to me by a number of textile artist friends. So an array of hand dyed materials serves to protect the piece on its journey to salvation, or doom, depending on who is guiding its voyage. Some serious engineering when into this; pliers, lei needles, upholstery needles and even a hammer were involved.
