I am excited for this motivator! Now that I am not a student, I have all sorts of extra time, theoreticaly. I am making a commitment to diving into tapestry- I am even forming a study grop in my guild for long term development. AND I am taking baby steps in basket weaving. AND I really need to finish up projects on at least 3 looms. AND... well, you can see why I am excited about getting into the habit of daily accountability with my weaving.

maybe it will get me to finish up my lingering tapestry, also the advancing twill scarf that has been on my smaller 8-shaft loom since the fall of 2012 - oh, I cannot believe that I put that out in print!  LOL

I will jump in on this one as well if I may. I am taking a workshop taught by Bonnie Inoyue next week, and an art show I am entering at the end of the month. I need to finish warping for the workshop, and need to do final sewing and finishing on some projects for the show. Plus there's that block-weave project we chose a draft for today in my guild More than Four study group. Lots of weaving to do!

I am prone to procrastination's aging cousin--dithering.  My new loom is in a shipping container in the middle of the Atlantic.  I should have it set up just in time for Halloweave to end.  Thanksgiving weavalong, anyone?   In the meantime, the old loom has been on the market for weeks and most of that time has been spent tweaking, experimenting and obsessively adjusting treadles to impress buyers.  I did weave off a couple of drall towels on the varpa, so they'd be ready to cut off if the loom sold.  Threw a warp of JOY 10/2 tencel on the table loom (new model Ashford) weeks ago, with the intention of rigging up live weight tension because I'm tired of ruining scarves through uneven tension/beat.  I am bad at perceiving changes in warp tension after advancing, and the Ashford is unforgiving in this.  So between floor looms, I need to learn to cope with the table loom.  Then there is the pile of projects for hemming, if I can ever decide which face is "up".  Then there is the planned krokbragd experiment on the idle Navajo loom....

I'm working my way through the book "Doubleweave" and working on the quilted section.  I must WEAVE DAILY or this will NEVER be done.  It is cool, but incredibly slow going.
