tapestry sewing kit purse

My first attempt at weaving tapestry on my backstrap loom.(I didn't have any other kind of loom at the time).  I wanted to reproduce a design that I have on a pre columbian textile remnant (PICTURED ABOVE). It was fun to do and interesting to see my first weft-faced project on this loom taking shape but progress was REALLY slow! I made up a 60cm warp but decided to stop after 16cm. It was supposed to be just a sample piece but I folded it in half and put a zip around three sides. Now it holds my scissors, needles and cotton and goes traveling with me.

I NOW HAVE A BLOG ON BACKSTRAP WEAVING!
