Just finishing off the current shawl warp - shades of plum:

cheers,

Laura

This is gorgeous, Laura! What yarn are you using? I love your blend of shades.

May 1 has me headed north from Florida back to Delaware for the summer months.....and I found out I will be home (after DH does two jobs on the way) in time to attend the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival! Yipee!

Hi Bonnie, it's a merino, bamboo, silk blend that I dyed with a commercially dyed black alpaca for weft.  The yarn was intended to be dyed and sold to other weavers, but it's really more of a knitting yarn and wasn't behaving particularly well as warp so I decided to weave it up myself.  There are another 6 warps of this yarn in the queue - I just finished weaving the plum and the next one will be shades of coral.  I've got some fine brown yarns to use as weft on that warp.  Looking forward to getting the yarn woven up and out of my stash!  :D

cheers,

Laura

WOW that is great.
I just took a warp off the loom because I wasnt able to keep the tension going.
It was a silk/bamboo blend.
Am completly bummed because I was going to make a shawl as well.
Becky

Sorry to hear your tension was poor.  :(  

Laura

...and the carnival is in town. Happy May Day everyone!

Hard to believe that this is the south shore of Great Slave Lake - the deepest lake in North America - still completely frozen.

Playing with the Avalon loom. Following the instructions I have been using the hook to weave through the loops and stretch the loops over the pegs.

I took a picture at the computer desk under a fluorescent light bulb and I did not like the colors. So I took the loom outside and took a picture outside on the grass in the shade (indirect natural light).

I like using natural light whenever possible.

Have a good day!
Franco Rios, Sacramento, Calif.

As I tried to finish the edges of the piece, it popped off the loom and some of the loops are unweaving themselves.

Having seen Noreen Crone-Findlay's video on weaving on potholder loom

I noticed Noreen used a chopstick to help stabilize the piece. So I
thought I would use a chopstick to recover the piece. Here I have
restored the weave using the chopstick to catch/hold the loops.

Here is the completed piece. As we see, the elastic of the loops reduces the piece about 50 percent. Time to start the next one.

And I just joined Noreen's group

The Magic of Potholder Looms

http://weavolution.com/group/magic-potho... Have a good day!

Just found out that Animal Planet is using a video of our corgi as a promo piece for some of their TV shows. Several months ago they wrote us and asked permission to use the video on their network. Never thought it would come to much. So now Sparky is getting his 15 minutes of fame. He's just a silly boy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yD3yVwC0fjg

DH and I are flying from coast to coast tomorrow.  Today we will drive to Oregon where we will pick up my mom.  We will fly into Maryland tomorrow evening.  My son and girlfriend will give us the grand tour around DC and surrounding countryside.  I will get to go to the Maryland Sheep and Wool show on sunday and plan to hit the Weavolution meet-up on Sunday around noon.  See you there if you will be there.

Aunt Janet— I am bummed, I am only going to be there on Saturday. But if you go Sunday, I think Sandy will be there with friends from the Five Rivers Fiber Guild. (Hopefully they will save some swag for you.) And have a wonderful Mother's Day!

Janet,

When are you flying? I want to wave at the airplane as you go by!

Have a joyful trip!
Franco Rios

This Sat. I pick up my new old loom. As you can see, it's not properly tied up and looks like a mess. But if someone  knows a little about looms, it is a really nice loom. Especially the price. LeClerc Fanny II w/2 warp beams & lots of extras. ......Steve.

That's a nice find Steve.

I think there is a group on Weavo for restoring looms?

I wish I had the room and the time to restore a loom like that.

Have a joyful day!Sacramento Calif.

I found  this video absolutely fascinating.  I have a regular wood spinning wheel.  This is glass!  Enjoy http://bit.ly/ipPcNM

Claudia, this is so beautiful, I love it.

Leclerc has info on their site about their looms.  What I can see is that the roller cords should be around the thicker part of the upper roller, not the thinner part.  An easy adjustment to make.  I have a Leclerc Fanny and it's a real workhorse.  :)

cheers,

Laura

I have all the info.from Leclerc to fix the loom. I have a dozen pics. from the seller. From what I saw, all the pieces are there and some. I read all the info. on the Fanny II, and it is good for rag rugs. Exactly what I need. There also seems to be some sort of raddle on the loom, about 15" below the second roller on the front of the risers. There is a dowel with small nails and a piece of wood with slots. Didn't find anything on the raddle. Can't wait to get it home. Wife and I are going to pick it up Sat. I will be replacing the heddles with Texsolv and all the cords too. This makes loom no.5 . This has to be the last. No more room. I'll be taking my Harrisville with me next time to the craft fair. People are fascinated when they see me weave............Steve.

You got the bug bad. Looms are just like rabbits they just keeping multiplying. Also yarn grows like it has seeds in it. Got an email this morning from a lady that wants to sell off all her weaving books, mags, yarn and equipment. Cheryl and I will go have a look see. Cheryl says she wish she knew how to clone herself so she could weave on all her looms.

Michael 

Michael, How many looms does Cheryl have? We have room to add a large room to our house, 22'x24'. Sewing/craft room. Then I might have room for , maybe, one more loom. At my last craft fair, the lady next to me had a very bad problem arise when the 30 mh winds recked her canopy. A little duct tape, and two adjustable paint roller poles, I fixed her canopy. So The next day she delivered to me about 30 lbs of old blue jeans and a promise of more at the next craft fair. That's several rugs...........Steve.

We have 4 Macombers, 48" 4h (soon 2b a 8h), 56" 16h, 56" 8h, and a frame for a 48" which I stripped for parts (all the wood was checked and in bad shape. A 35" 4h Newcomb, a 22" 4h Harrisville copy I made in 1984 and one RH loom. So I guess that would be 7 looms and around 2000 pounds of yarn from frog hair silk to course rug yarn and every type of yarn in between. Cheryl has been using a 28' x 60' trailer as her new weaving studio and still has the Newcomb loom, hundreds of pounds of yarn and boxes of store purchased cloth in the upstairs weaving room of the main house. She has ran out of room in the trailer for storing yarn. The trailer has a 6 foot garden tub in the master bathroom which we are thinking of taking out and putting in more yarn storrage racks. We will see what this lady has when she gets back to me.

Michael

Some of the weavers in my local guild are participating in a friendship coverlet.  I've been winding up the balls of yarn for the pattern weft for them.  Here are the first four colours:

At this time of the year we experience the light coming back to us. I took this picture from my balcony tonight at 10 pm. Soon there wil be no more sunset. What we have of darkness now is merely twilight and that will disappear too before long.

Eva

Lovely - we are having longer days, too, but not so long as yours will be.  :)

cheers,

Laura

It is amazing! I have never seen something so beautiful!

Here's the Weavo team, delivering a 10 minute demo, raffling off swag, and continually telling people that "Yes, this IS the rabbit building, but there are no rabbits here." (Franco or Jerri, where were you?? We could have used a rabbit or two!)

Perfect weather, and Inky & I got to meet a lot of great weavers today. Unfortuntely, I was having so much fun, I forgot to get out the camera...

Sparky is just too cute! Love that little dance :)

Are those mountains in Norway?

Is there a name for those mountains? I'd like to look it up in Google Maps.

Have a good day!

So where are the rabbits?

Have a good day!

Just watched the Sparky Dance.  That is about as silly as I've ever watched a dog be.  Thanks for sharing with us!

Hi Franco,

We will be landing in Medford, OR about 1:00 pacific time. I don't think we will be flying over Sacramento, but wave anyway for good luck.

We are having a great visit here.  My poor son has a cold and we are wearing him out with our site seeing excurisions.  His girlfriend, Sujitra, will accompany me today to the wool festival while my mom and my husband head back to DC for more site seeing there.

I found myself crying yesterday when I discovered the impressionists in the National Arts Gallery.  OOOOOEEEEEE!  I love those paintings.  I would have loved to spend several days in that gallery.  Next trip.

Today is "Mother's Day" in USA, a semi-holiday to celebrate mothers and thank them for all they do and all they have done for us.

Below is my mother and 4 of her children.She is the short one in front.

Have A Happy Mother's Day!

I will be in the Morgan Hill/San Jose CA area May 13-15 and Hollywood/San Fernando Valley May 16-20. Any good exhibits/stores to visit? Not that I NEED anything anymore... not that there's any ROOM either!

Joan

Hi franco, the mountains are called Børvasstindan, I don't know how the second letter comes out on your computer, but try an o or oe. There is really not much to find on google earth, but then the mountains look their best from a distance, that is from Bodø where I live. But at least you can find the location in the north of Norway. Maybe I could upload my picture to google earth? I'll think about that.

Good luck Eva

Here is a frog waiting for a insect to visit the flower and become

 lunch.

Dear Friends,

Surprise Wedding!! The bride didn't know it, but when her fiancee
brought her to Columbus Circle fountain yesterday afternoon, an officiant and a wedding bouquet were waiting for her. She married her
romantic Prince on the steps of the fountain, I was the wedding
photographer!! Surprised me, too! I do not know their names.  A very New York Moment

XO Gail & Fog

Michael, is that a gecko on top of the rock? I guess when a bug comes flying there will be a contest to see who gets lunch.

Nice picture!

Have a good day!

Hello Eva,

I copied and pasted the spelling from your message to lookup Bodø and Børvasstindan on Google maps. But you are correct, looking down at the mountains in satellite picture is not as pretty as your viewpoint from Bodø.

I was able to find the location and that so far up North I can not imagine  what it must be like to live there.

Thank you for sharing.

Have a good day!

Franco Rios

My corner of the world was watching my nephew perform at Lincoln Center from the nosebleed seats of the balcony, third tier. But it provided a great overview, and the sound is perfect, of course. Just wish I had remembered my binoculars. (I think I left them by the loom-Deb would know why.)

Sally,

That looks grand. I wish I could hear it!

Have a good day!

Franco, the gecko is cast iron.

Michael

In San Jose, make sure you check out the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles.  They recently had some lovely Mayan handweaving up on display in addition to quilts.  Not sure what is currently up - but check out their website at http://www.sjquiltmuseum.org .

Other than that there is not a great deal in San Jose that I'm aware of...but the Quilt Museum is definitely worth a look!

Tien

Michael's daughter, Christine, gave birth to a healthy baby boy, Master Emrys (8lb, 5oz) on May 8, 2011. I wove this blanket for the baby.

This doll was mine as a little girl in England a very long time ago. The blanket is 100% cotton.

This was a draft from "Handwoven" Mag 1993.

Cheryl

1) Michael and Cheryl - Congratulations!!! You must be thrilled.  I expect pictures.  Great baby blanket.  Thanks for sharing.

2) Sally - more about your nephew.  What instrument and what did he perform with whom?

3) Gail - OMG - what a hoot!  Such a lovely contrast to the current trend of seeing how much you can spend on a wedding.  I hope she was happily surprised and not disappointed at the lack of hoopla or missing relatives.

4) I was in NYC weekend before last very briefly and got to see the Andean woven tunic display at the Met.  If you're in the area, it is well worth seeing.  It is small but rich with different techniques. The preservation is amazing.  Some of the garments still retain the wrinkles from a tie-dying process.

That was #1 on the list. We're doing a Relay Walk for Life thing & the Quilt Museum would be a treat afterwards, then maybe some Thai food...

Thanks for the congrats. Christine sent her brother a phone picture of the baby, being a male he deleted it. (lack of space) go figure. Anway the next time you are in NY you need to check out the "Cloisters" it houses over 3000 pieces of Medieval Europen art dating from the 9-16 century. It is located on Manhatten's far upper west side. Around 168 street. You can get there by the subway.          http://www.metmuseum.org/Works_Of_Art/department.asp?dep=7

Michael,

born in NYC

OMG! I am at the historic textile conference and having a blast! I'm meeting lots of virtual friends (Deb is here! ), famous weavers, and seeing incredible textiles. New Inky photos will be posted shortly. Silk, indigo dyeing, a glass of wine, and a campfire are still on the agenda for just today! Guildmate Margriet just waulked 8 yards of sheperd's check wool with Mary Underwood this morning.

Sally that sounds so fun! All I am doing today is tieing on a new warp on the old loom so I can make more rugs. Got the first 1/3 done and found one mistake in the old warp so far. I know there is another one but this one I didn't know about. Old eyes miss stuff. When I get through with this warp it will be right.

Marlenedg in Sunny Oregon

Can you spot Inky? (He's in both photos.) But that's Florence (the "Spinning Wheel Sleuth" - www.spwhsl.com) heading into the Handweaving Museum. 

I know he lives dangerously, but really! 

Congrats to Michael and Cheryl on the grandbaby, and my best to everyone standing flood watch this week.  I'm off to look at a bigger loom.

I'm sure the blanket will wrap the baby in love.  It also happens to be the May featured project on the Handwoven calender.

Michael,

Yes, I've been to and love the Cloisters.  It was quite a trek to get up there because there was line work going on.  Weekends are iffy on the subway.  I've gotten crossed up many times.  But Thos. and I got there and loved it.

Marlene,

Are you in eastern Oregon?  I lived in the west for a number of years and sunny spring days were extremely rare!

Alison

If you got the time you could take a bus for the same money. It is a great way to see the city.

Thanks, everyone for the kind remarks about the baby and the blanket. I mailed it off today along with a pair of earrings for the mother. At times like these the baby gets everything and the mother feels left out.

Sally I think Inky is done on one.  

michael

And it was love at first sight! (Thanks to Jayne F. for this great line when I was taking the photo in the library of the Handweaving Museum!)

By the way, this library has the complete Mary Snyder collection among other outstanding books and sample collections.

BTW, anyone know where Inky is?

Sally

P.S. Deb was watching carefully to make sure Inky wouldn't ignite.

Inky is in Clayton, NY.  The Handweaving Museum is a treasure trove!

Yes - Clayton, New York it was!

It was a warm, wonderful, astounding, and thought-provoking experience. (I think I have to start a new thread dedicated to the conference, I don't want to overload this forum.)

One last Inky shot as the conference concludes...by the statue of Emily Post, wearing a Skye tartan, woven and strategically placed by Mary Underwood.

Here is how the other yarn looks as a potholder.Today's highlight was getting pea-sized hail this afternoon in Sacramento, Calif.Have a good day!

Sitting at the 'puter catchin up on the weekends email and listening to the sound of pitter patter on the roof....... again!!!!  Will the rain ever stop???

Spent the last two days demonstrating inkle weaving at a Civil War Commemoration event.  It is always so much fun to see people weave for the first time.  I was promised that a rigid heddle was coming out of the box - TONIGHT - I hope she follows through, its a shame to have one collecting dust.  Pics later

Making headway on major stash busting effort.  Four more shawl warps once this one is done.  :)

cheers,

Laura

No I am in weatern Oregon,1/2 way between Coos Bay and Roseburg and 18 miles north of Remote, Oregon. We are way out in the hills with elk in the front yard and many interesting things to see.

 Today I finished the new warp on the old loom and got to talk to an old friend Sandy Voss who make great rugs in New Mexico. She gave me some information and it sure was good to talk to her. We lost contact some where about 1978. She is the first person to try and get me weaving. Took a long time but here I am.

Have a great day everyone.

marlene ( it is raining in Oregon again)

Loomyladi, send some of that rain down here to the Gulf Coast if you don't want it! We really need it!

I am in Worcester Ma and it is COLD. Did it even get above 50 degrees today? I taught finger loop braiding at Boys and Girls Club today which was crazy and fun, visited with a Burmese backstrap weaver yesterday and learned yet another way to put patterning sticks in a backstrap loom and now my hostess has me weaving Saori. We are going to her Saori class tonight....

We are introducing a new loom and it's one I love! I have been asked more than once if we made a place mat loom and now we do. This loom is designed to use rag and tee-shirt strips. You can weave yarn on it but it has to be pretty bulky yarn. I tried kitchen cotton alone and that's too fine for it. But take a look at the place mat I wove using knit fabric strip. I did use the kitchen cotton as weft. I've also woven a rug, using pendleton selvages that turned out nicely.

Franco,

This looks right up your alley. Very ingenious!

Carie

Awesome. That is simply clever.

I can do that!

Thanks for the link.

Have a good day!
Franco Rios

I'm continuing on my stash reduction efforts and making a serious dent in some of my yarn.  Better yet, the shawls are really turning out nicely.  I'll be sorry when this warp is done!

Cheers,

Laura

Just love all these color combinations, Laura! You must have an amazing stash.

I do!  And it's going down!  :D

Cheers,

Laura

Oh man...I was ROFLMBO....I looooooooove Corgis....had one for 12 years...but never saw mine do that dance...toooooo cute. Congrats on the TV show.

That was really interesting to watch...but then who doesn't love watching any Artisan in their chosen field...Beautiful work and that he chose a spinning wheel to make made it even better. Thx for sharing.

hi Laverne, you will discover Saori-weaving is great. It has a whole philosophy behind the weaving. Is it a class of Saori-Worcester you are going to attend? you really should ask to see the photos of project :the bridges of Elmpark. that was a great event. I follow their website and I am a member of Saori-explorersgroup on Yahoo. 

We just got a new Pembroke Corgi puppy. He is such a good boy! Sally

Hi Jeannine,

Yes it was the Worcester saori group that I spent time with. I saw photos of the bridge project with the waterfall saori pieces. That was wonderful.

Oh, you have to show pictures as soon as you can...they are the cutest little puppies, they look like little bears...LOL! I'm so jealous...

I went to the Kentucky Sheep and Fiber Festival outside of Lexington on Sunday.  There were lots of terrific vendors, sheep, goats, alpacas,music, demonstrations, and workshops.  This is a picture of the Bluegrass Classic Stockdog Trial that was happening at the same time/place.

Here are some of the potholders done on the square loom.

All done with cotton yarn. The corner loop is just a four strand braid.

Have a good day!

Laura,

I appreciate your warp-progress posts. (And congratulations on the stash reduction. We are all shooting for that goal I think, but it is easier said than done!) It is encouraging to see your progress, and sets a benchmark for me to see how frequently you put a warp on and weave it off.

A few years ago, I decided to try and measure my yearly output by total yardage. A second aspect of that goal was to work up to longer warps. At the time I was averaging shorter warps of 3-5 yards. 

I realized this year I am now averaging mostly 7-9 yard warps.

I am curious, what average length warp do most folks put on your floor looms?

I'm making rugs and hand bags. I put on min. of 20 yards of warp. I have a sectional warp beam on my Glimakra and my Leclerc. Thats makes it easy to put on long warps.............Steve.

As a newish weaver, I have used creative means to inexpensivley add to my weaving yarns stash. And when I recently took the time to organize some of my treasured hunted/gathered/hoarded stock, I came across this stuff:

What should I do with it? The sticker inside the 5 or 6 pounds says Nylon Heatset, and BASF Corporation Fibers Division. I did a bit of research to find it is probably from their rug fibers division...But I am still scratching my head LOL

About the fiber: it is tough and scratchy. But not so stretchy it couldn't be a warp. It is somewhat fuzzy. Maybe about the size of a 3/2.

Ideas?

(And yes, I have stopped being super excited about large amounts of yarn on cones wherever I go. Or at least, I have become tempered, and more likely to check the fiber content. haha)

On the AVL I generally put on a minimum of 10 yards.  The Leclerc Fanny I generally put on enough for at least two items (5 yards for two scarves, for example).  Usually the maximum I put on the Fanny is 13 yards because my warping board will wind a warp that long.  The AVL I usually beam sectionally so there's lots of room for a really long warp.  The longest I've beamed on that is around 110 yards....Mostly I put on between 20-40 yards.  The stash reduction shawl warps are 18 yards for 6 shawls.....

And now it's off to the loom to finish the current warp.  Two more to do and this series will be done.  All except the finishing, of course!  That takes as long as the weaving.  :}

cheers,

Laura

Stash reduction = Inventory Inflation.... :)) Deb Mc

Oh yes, but with the craft fair season coming up all too soon, more inventory is actually A Good Thing.........   :}

cheers,

Laura

where the shows start in September - that's just - erk - 3 months away!

I used to have a 27 inch weaving width Fanny in the studio and I always put 30 or 35 yard warps on it.  This was for a cotton bag project that many of my students would weave as a first project, 10/2 cotton, over 300 ends.  I never had any problems putting on a cotton warp that long.   And one time I made that warp 28 inches wide, a bit wider than the weaving width.  

I would wind it on my warping reel.  It would take about 45 minutes to wind the warp and about 30 to 40 minutes to put it on the beam.

Joanne

 First of all Franco if yoyu called those pot holders Mug Rugs everyone would want on. I do anyway!They are very cool.

OK so I am very new using a very old loom and so far I have put 7 yards on the loom twice. By the time I get tired of it the warp is about done.

 This week I got my copy of Bobbies Twining book so I have been trying a round twined rug from some material I dyed . Real pretty blue and purple. Pictures when it is done. The center could be better but the rest is starting to look like it will be very nice. You do them on a table and I had to pack the table for a show so I have to find a new spot to twine.

Fun,fun.

Have a great week everyone,next I want to learn Inkle weaving.Never a dull moment!

It's already Memorial Day weekend coming up...can't believe how fast this month has flown by.  Going to try and finish my weaving on my loom by Friday night and then take off for Atascadero for the weekend.  As always making the morning stop in Solvang for breakfast...I'll take some pics to share of that and the weaving when I return...don't forget to hang your flags!!!  What are you doing this weekend? 

JuliaT—Is that a morning stop in Solvang, CA, home of Village Weaving and Spinning? (If so, pet the yarn and pat the looms for me!)

Saturday I will be volunteering in Hill House, at Millbrook Village, Delaware Water Gap National Park (borders PA and NJ). Come visit and make my day!

Sunday and Monday I'll be digging to uncover the septic tank and see if we have a tree root invasion. (That was NOT how I was planning to spend my holiday when I got up this morning!)

Sally

In my corner of the world, I am biting my nails and waiting by the phone - I'm expecting one or more job offers next week and the suspense is KILLING ME!!  Time has never passed more slowly.

Loom-wise: I typically put on 10-20 yards of fine yarns, but my latest warp is "only" 7 yards long because it's a sample warp.  It's woven with a painted warp, a handpainted knitted blank for weft, and then burned out using devore.  Here's a before-and-after photo:

I was experimenting with devore, the gauzy sections are a plainweave mesh of metallic gold polyester embroidery thread - what was left over after burning out the tencel.

More details (and LOTS more photos!) on my blog: http://www.tienchiu.com/2011/05/first-de...

I can't seem to stay off soapboxes:

cheers,

heading back to the loom for shawl #2 for the day.....

Well, my plans changed...not going this weekend but in 3 weeks.  I've heard about Village Weaving and Spinning from my Weaving Teacher and had planned to stop the next time I'm there...thank you for reminding me. I will most definitely pet and pat for you! 

I don't think anything anyone is doing will even compare to digging to uncover a septic tank...doesn't sound like such fun...if I was closer I'd come and sympathy dig with you. 

I will be trimming my trees back from the fenceline and hopefully be done and have all the branches bagged and in the can so I can enjoy some of the Holiday.  (maybe get some weaving in too!)

I have a metal American Flag on my screen door, and my big American Flag flying. 

Claudia, Janet and I went strawberry-picking this morning. We were out there early on a perfect day... It was my first time ever picking. We got just about two boxes and here is the result...The second one is the oven and I can smell it baking as I type.

It's times like this that you really see the limitations of email. 

I took a few pictures today-Breakfast Is Served - Oatmeal with raisins, banana, strawberry
