Yes indeed, I found the loom that I mentioned in my last post, and I remembered enough about it to start a woven… something:
I’m not sure what else to say about this weaving adventure at this point. I’m stuck, I don’t remember how to secure the loose ends on both the warp and weft. The loom came with an instructional DVD, and I need to watch it again to figure out how to finish what I started. It has been unseasonably warm here, so I have not wanted to sit and watch, I have been picking daffodils, pulling weeds and sitting out on the porch with some hand stitching. As for what my plans are for the weaving, I am envisioning using the pieces as embellishment appliques. I could use a few small pieces separately, or put together several strips to make one bigger piece and use them in a fabric collage. Up next on my stay-at-home punch list, sewing with candy wrappers. Curious? Find out all about it on Tuesday.
