So a long weekend spent taking what should be a 4 shaft weaving pattern and changing it to 3 rigid heddles (1st time I've done this). It's proving to be quite a challenge.
Let's see how far I get this time. It's the 3rd time I've threaded this far. 😁

I'm just finishing up new stock for Southern Pines Springfest tomorrow.

I hope to see you there, lots of lovely Handmade Spring/Summer outfits, are ready and waiting for you 🙂

My other passion next to sewing is weaving.

I learned to weave at my local guild , I started with a rigid heddle loom and met the very talented Sharon from .

Sharon had been working with these tiny little swatch looms, we were intrigued and excited at the endless possibilities of trying out colour combinations without having to thread a loom to see if our ideas worked.

I am thrilled to have received these fabulous sets and look forward to trying them out shortly.

Head over to for more information and photos of the sample looms.
