Just beautiful. I wove with cards years ago. Seeing things like this makes me want to take it up again. Do you ever card weave with a backstrap loom? If so, could you send me a PM? I'd like to ask some questions. thks, Laverne

 I like band weaving because I travel for work and it's portable. I also like "simple" weaving forms that blow a viewer away with the complexity of pattern achieved with simple tools.

This is really excellent, thanks for posting the image AND the draft! I have seen copies of the TWIST newsletter, and it seems like a dynamite publication and a dedicated group.

How many samples did your 7 foot warp result in?
