Whole piece
Bit closer in
Exciting empty loom, ready for its next adventure.
I'm now two floors down, and forgot to measure, but I think the tapestry is 8×4 ins.
This was a learning curve and I now know a lot more about doing this. I have to do an improved jig, for one thing. But the tensioning mechanism is fine.
Meanwhile I've pulled colors for the two pieces to be worked on the Hokett loom. Not four selvedge this time. And not handspun, but embroidery floss. Shading will be a thing here.
Excuse me. I didn't mean to laugh, truly I didn't. But...you having to do an 'improved jig' set me off. I can envision Boud doing a happy dance over completing this piece. I know....I need to get a life. (like the piece, btw)
ReplyDeleteThat's funny! I do happy dances now and then. But hadn't thought of happy jigs!
