Plaid Rug

Hi, this is my first weaving project on my rigid heddle loom. I made it to be a rug but I don't want to walk on it so for now I have it on my chair.It's almost big enough to be a blanket, so it may end up to be so. Kyla

Rigid Heddle Loom Weaving has begun

This is my first rigid heddle loom which I bought from Joan, another member of the weaving class. There are 6 yards of cotton warp on it which will provide lots of opportunities to practice the various techniques of weaving. And I have lots of leftovers, mill ends, and scraps of yarn for practicing tapestry techniques. Plans are for place mats, and a large wall hanging that will actually go on the exposed chimney someday. Weaving is restful and stress reducing so far. Waiting for some new books with ideas for techniques and projects. Betsy will be so pleased when she returns home from Spain.
