Table Runner



I completed the rest of the sample warp was a table runner for my mom's birthday.  I think she'll love it!! I wish there was more warp to make one for myself!!  I'll just have to put another one on.



And in other news... for those of you who like to sew for babies, I found a new pants pattern that is out of this world!  It's $10, but well worth it!  It is called the Big Butt Baby Pants and it will definitely not disappoint!  I love this pattern already and I'm so glad I can use it until my little guy is two years old.  Here is the pic... now keep in mind he wasn't too thrilled with pics today, he would have rather eaten dinner first, but this mama was just too excited to get some pics!




I love this pattern so much, that I made some for David's cousin who is just a few months older and lives in Seattle.  I think she will love the colors we picked out for her!  It's such a summer-like combination!






I can't wait to try some handwoven fabric someday!

Catsup and mustard, and nothing having to do with food

I can't believe January is almost over, and I never even shared my Christmas towels I made for family!  "Where is 2016 going?" I'm already asking myself! Here are the Christmas towels that I promised to show you so long ago!  These were so much fun to make and didn't take as much thought to do as you would fear! I didn't follow any particular pattern. When I sat down to thread my loom, I did more of a profile draft style threading but I didn't write it down first I just do it from my head. Same thing for treadling- I didn't have that written down first I just followed a profile-like draft from my head. So it was all somewhat of a surprise to me as I went! The towels I made were from 12/2 cotton.  I warped 6 yards, and the epi was 24. Made 8 towels total. Just a little reminder... When threading for summer and winter…. block 1 = 1 3 2 3 block 2 = 1 4 2 4 block 3 = 1 5 2 5 block 4 = 1 6 2 6 block 5 = 1 7 2 7 block 6 = 1 8 2 8 David is, of course, grow...

Today's color is... BLUE! Look at all those blues!  I also finished crocheting another kitty... one in BLUE and one in green!     Now we have a family of 4 kitties! They really do multiply fast! Wait a minute... one of these things is not quite like the other... Mr. Gnome, how did you get there?

All threaded

It's 100% done, but riddled with mistakes.  I realized only when I was done threading the constant mistake I kept making.  However, I'm all the way through now and it's only a sample mainly to test color, so I'm really not worrying about them yet.  If I want to make it into a towel, I can either start completely over or fix them and then tie onto the warp.  Chances are I will pretty much always choose staring over from scratch. David's eyes look just like the eyes on his toy!  haha
