The Weekend Edition - You won't believe what I made on my toy loom! π€©
|
Hi Weavers! How exciting to upload my 400th video to my weaving Youtube channel this week! I wanted to make it a special one, and I hope you agree that I accomplished that π It's all about encouraging weavers of all different backgrounds everywhere to have a go at weaving and have fun with it! βI wove a blanket on a toy loom!β ****************************************************** PROVIDENCE RIDGE On my second channel I'm talking about how starting a Youtube channel after the age of 40 completely changed my life: βHow starting a Youtube channel over 40 gave me my dream life...β ************************************************* NEW BOAT SHUTTLE I've had a chance to really try out my new XL boat shuttle from Ashford. Although it's a little too big for my 16" table loom, it's perfect on my big countermarch loom that currently has a 45" wide warp on. I was struggling along with a smaller boat shuttle so the XL sized shuttle is a welcome upgrade. I will also be using it a lot with my Louet David floor loom.β These are now available at your local Ashford supplier but if you plan on purchasing and can use one of my affiliates I would be most grateful π US - The Wooleryβ AUS - Thread Collectiveβ *************************************************

Now I need to choose some batting, backing fabric and do the quilting.
