It's getting really exciting around here because it's MOVING DAY! Three sections of the mural are making their way out of Ellen's studio and will soon be heading to the mill for the next phase of installations.

Ellen and crew are working through the plans on the steel/aluminum plates, U bolts, and scaffolding platform on wheels that will be needed to get the rest of the mural up--and how to get the remaining sections to the mill in Winsted. So much happening in the weeks ahead.

Ellen finished cutting the Stitch section along the wheel, eliminating the white aluminum areas. Next up: attaching Steve on the right side of Stitch, finishing the tiles on Stitch's plaid shirt, and then hanging the section up. Getting closer!

Stitch and Steve, Native American mechanics from New Mexico, are in the building and the first to be attached to the armature in the weeks ahead. First job is to affix the 50 or so ceramic tiles—created by students at the Taos Day School in 2003—that make up Stitch’s plaid shirt. Check out the New Mexico Project.
