Susan,

I have just spent a couple of weeks in the Philippines, with a week in southern Mindanao. It is a pleasant surprise to return to find your post on abaca.

You have a beautiful T'boli "t'nalak" (your Abaca Ikat 1) and I believe that your Abaca Ikat No 2 may also be T'boli.

I was fortunate to travel to Lake Sibu last year where I was able to observe and photograph the T'boli abaca weaving process and purchase quite a few lengths of T'boli "t'nalak". Each design used by the T'boli weavers has a name and many of these designs have been passed from one generation to the next.

I would like to recommend an excellent book about the T'boli and their weaving:

Paterno, Maria Elena P. (ed) "Dreamweavers"
The Bookmark, Inc, Makati City, Philippines, 2001
ISBN 971-569-407-1
(Please see copy of cover attached)

I believe that this book was issued in conjunction with an exhibition of T'boli weaving at the Philippines National Museum.

This trip I was fortunate to find a few nice old Bagobo pieces to add to my collection.

Maybe others out there have some Philippines Textiles in their collections . . .
