A quick resume of my week......looking back on it, I can see I have been quite productive!! I am sure that this is partly due to the bad weather, as it means I am happy to stay inside more and be creative. As you can see, we have had some sun - I always make the most of it! I finished this red scarf, and wove. the sleeves for the proposed coat. Today I plucked up the courage and cut out the body! It was rather nerve racking and it is rather hit and miss. I have discovered that I haven't really woven quite enough, so the coat will probably be too small for me!! Never mind - if it's good enough I plan to put it in an exhibition in the summer, and then maybe I shall need to let a small person have it!!! All this keeps me very happy!!

Wow - at the colours and patterns in your weaving here are tremendous.!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how brave you are cutting into these woven pieces
I'm with Mystic Quilter - cutting into those wonderful pieces is very brave in my view!
ReplyDeleteIt's looking lovely. I'm looking forward to seeing it finished. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a collection of colorful loveliness! If it's too small, can you weave an extra thin panel for each front & one for the back? Tho I'm no weaver or seamstress, for that matter ;)It will look fab whatever size.
