Hand Woven...By ME!


I really wasn't sure how best to photograph this project. Which obviously didn't keep me from taking, and then posting, a ridiculous number of pictures.

So, here it is! My first woven item...


I received a number of complements on it from real life, veteran weavers. Both on the artistic design aspects, as well as technique. Apparently, my tension was excellent for a beginner. One woman said that I must be a very relaxed person (ha!). And while I am certain that they were all just being polite, I was still tickled pink with their praise.
