Warp done

Took longer that it should have - which is only my own fault. But it is now done, and ready to weave.


Now to get busy and just do that.

I have plenty of patterns ready and I really want to use that PVC for my first 
sample. I am thinking of creating 1 m long samples, which I am hoping will 
look great. First though I need to test some of these patterns I have drawn. 

I won;t be spending to long doing this but it's worth while to get  myself 
prepared and work out any mistakes and issues to sort in these patterns 
before I try weaving any samples.

Jacquard Warp


New Jacquard Warp, hopefully ready for Tuesday 5th May.

It will be a  black and white warp, like the one I used at the beginning of the year to create my first few Jacquard samples. This means more contrast in my work and the need to use black and white in the warp, meaning it has to be used in my designs.

This could be a good thing for my woven pattern pieces - for other samples this might not be as advantageous. Especially for samples of just weave patterns in sections as the black will need to be incorporated. Though this could produce some really good ideas and designs.
But I'm going to be happy when I can start weaving again.


This will be my last push for samples and designs.
