Weaving..

Last weekend I had the pleasure of attending
a weaving workshop.

It was sponsored our local spinning and weaving guild.

Introduction to weaving on a four harness loom..


 Learning new words, calculating, threading, treadling...


Then weaving a pattern..

where this..


Turned into this.. 


Plain weave and twill.

It was an amazing day

and

FUN!

The amount of talent and knowledge in this body of fine folks
will never cease to amaze me.  

My sincere thanks to you all who took the time to 
teach us,
mentor us, 
encourage us,
laugh with us,
and 
share your love of the fiber arts...

I am grateful for you ~

  2. Lucy - I can't tell what the dimensions of your wonderful weavings are, but they look just like a set of woven coasters that I paid $$$ for some years ago. Keep going! AC
