One of the fun things about travelling are the small reminders you bring back home with you. I travelled on the trans-siberian railway in 2012, and spent about a week in Mongolia during that trip. I loved the country and my time there, and wanted to bring back some fabric from the country. After much searching and a lot of awkward hand gestures and smiles, I picked up a small assortment of fabric from a woman at a local market. It has been waiting to be used, and I decided to just go for it! So I did up a few very simple but colorful runners in October 2014. To be honest, the fabric was hard to work with-- very plastic and it pulled apart easily. So I didn't attempt anything more elaborate than stripes. A version of this runner was given to Anders (friend), Anne Marie (friend), Taryn (colleague) and Leah (sister), as well as keeping one myself as a reminder of my Mongolian adventure.
