High Fiber—At Last! Part I
Posted on November 19, 2018 at 8:30am 1 Comment 0 Favorites
Wow! What a week! I had hoped to get the loom put together, but it was too busy. I did get all the heddles loaded onto the rods in the shafts. Here it is with just two shafts loaded, and there are four, but I did finish that part. There are enough heddles (those things that look like wires hanging down in the middle) to weave something with more than 400 warp threads.…

Well, the loom didn't get put together. This week got away from me, and the light in there isn't too good yet, so from late afternoon on, it's hard to work in the alcove where the loom is.
However, Billy's hat to go with his cardigan is…

Monday was busy. If you read last week's blog post, you'll remember we had a phone call from the driver of the van that held all of our household goods except for the 700 lbs. that had been left behind because they didn't fit on the van. He said he had been caught as being overweight in Brigham City (the van, not the driver) at the weigh station and had to wait for…

Thank you Peggy. I have the site up on a tab on my computer right now. I have used crayon on fabric only once but did not embroider it. I am interested in trying it again, and with embroidery. I love the look, and am getting back into simple embroidery stitching, slowly. I used to do quite a bit, long ago.
It's funny how quilting has changed my color vision. I am not a fan of purple-but-when a quilt screamed at me and stomped it's little foot, I added some purple applique and it was perfect. What do I know??
I love all that space you have in your sewing room. My room at the house is 15x20 and this one is 10 ft square. But this one is cozy and the big closet helps keep it neat. Right now I'm working on a table runner with applique so I have a mess in there. I pulled out several colors of fabric trying to decide what colors to work with. I do miss my office desk and bulletin board but I'm making due. I put stuff on my closet doors with that putty stuff. It comes off easy with no damaged. Where there's a will there's a way.
Peggy,
Thanks for the link to the train quilt. Looks great!
We've had a hard freeze as well. It is raining here today, which is needed.
Love the socks and all you have to share..
Here's my baby quilt. Went back and read your post on the Modern Pine Burr and the tip on matching crossbars. Mine didn't go exactly as planned but I managed to match everything. More or less, Ha! Ha!
You mentioned poodles in your March comment boy oh boy my ktn kisses all poodles and chichisu coming down sidewalk. Those poodles are so happy for their new found friend. I have to watch him when he outside this lady across busy streets has 3 running inside her fenced yard. He eyes them and they make their presence known by yapping. I grew up on farm with medium size dogs, I too have found new love for small dogs. Very friendly!
Thanks I will,,,,It is just so interesting what you girls do...So many groups,,it is just like CT. Just knitting! I may have to join that one just to see what I have learned is the right way..
Peggy,,How did you get started in Weaving,,all those scarfs and everything you do...I love quilting, but I am also interested in other fiber arts as well...Please tell me how and why you got started. ~ thanks, Joanna
Only just now found your friend request. My internet skills are hit and miss - obviously. Now that I know about the comment wall, I'll be sure to keep an eye on it.
