Rainy day weaving
This is my sampler that I have started at my weaving class at the college. It is only about 6 inches wide. Will make 5 to 6 inches of different patterns and colors. It is fun to see what you can do. I got my new loom home Sunday and sold my sofa the same day, so now I have more room! Will post pictures later and tell the story about the loom. I have to sell the big monster loom first. Been working hard to weave the warp off that I have on it. Did a big 75 inch denim rug this weekend and started another out of corduroy. Good weather to weave. We have over 5 1/2 inches of rain so far as this morning and it has been raining all day! Good for the farmers.

Congratulations on getting the new loom!
ReplyDeleteYour sampler is looking very nice, too! These patterns are all from the same threading, eh? Quite a bit of variety. Not been weaving or much of anything up here.....been fighting a cough/chest cold, so just laying low.
I look forward to more photos!
