The weaving that I did on the rigid heddle loom, see earlier post, was finished and used on the table tonight. 2 placemats and a table runner, turned sideways on the end of the table. That way I can still keep the lazy susan. It is very satisfying to weave something and then actually use it in the house. I suppose "real " weavers that I know do this all the time, but for me, brand new to this, I find it extremely satisfying. So much so that I am going to get another loom, one the folds and can travel, only 24 in wide, but perfect for table runners and placemats. I plan to take it on vacation with me, sit and weave looking out over the ocean, etc. glass of wine...etc. So this weaving thing is just about the best craft that I have discovered, thanks to good friends who encourage me.
