A double act

A two-tiered mobile, with passengers:


Not quite in focus, but the top one has two passengers: Ture Sventon and Mr Omar.
Ture Sventon is a children's-fiction detective from the '60-ies (still popular) - he bought a flying carpet from mr Omar. He uses it regularly, and mr Omar sometimes helps him investigate.

I thought it could be appropriate to use them, as the exhibition is in the library...

Oh, and I might add that all three are woven in taqueté, threaded on 16 shafts. (But I don't remember if I utilized all blocks)

In a couple of hours all three mobiles will be in place.
