This is a new process for me and it does require patience. I would move a piece, or remove it, and then leave the result hanging on the wall for a while. Every now and then I'd move, add, or subtract, slash, and always ask "what if?" I even contacted Rayna and she gave me pointers and encouragement. I found it hard to create when I didn't know what I was creating. I am so used to working with a theme in mind. In the end, I decided I was just trying to find a harmonious arrangement for the strips, shapes and colors I had chosen to use. One of the rewards was using "ugly" fabrics and actually liking them!
Here is how the composition came together...

| Ta- Da!
I will be doing some more strip therapy and making more of these compositions. Another way to play!
