Warping Foo

making heddles

attaching heddles to bar


Took loom to SH to art with Tina today.  Decided I needed more warp.  It was too narrow.  I'm up to 50 ends now.  Think I'll get it up to 60.  That should be enough.

Warping the Loom ~ Continuous Warp



Took a great deal of studying the inky dinky drawing, and watching a less than complete video, to figure out the continuous warp.  I think it's correct.




I'll find out when I start weaving if I did it right.  Let's hope.

20 warp threads.

New Project ~ Blink


I'm going to warp up my new Schacht tapestry loom for a series of small tapestries I call Woof Faced.  The first one is called Blink.

Scribbling sketches.




How thick do I want the line?

Ta Da





Cotton backing added.  Need to add a signature chop.  Perhaps embroidered in chain stitch on the back.
