Fiber PHanatic

After several weeks of utter frustration in the weaving dept. I've finally managed to put the 2nd weaving project (Christmas present) to rest. Just need to wash it and iron it. I'm so glad to have these two projects done finally and can move on to things I would like to do for the Harvey House show in Feb. This is my Mother in Law's handwoven scarf in brown cotton and the Painted Desert colorway. and the bottom one is my Sister in Law's table runner in coral, chocolate and multi/teal handspun. I really love the colors together and am already thinking of OTHER projects to do with the tons of yarn I have just laying around.......

I am learning to use my new toy - the rigid heddle loom. Kat gave me some lovely warp to warp the loom and I began weaving after Terri showed me how to warp and get started. this is very small compared to where I'm at now!!!! Close up of the woven part. Good thing this is just practice - I have made a TON of mistakes. Teacher Myra said she'd make me go back and correct them but I don't think so now - I've gotten about 2 ft done on the loom - not happening!!!! I don't mind the mistakes and I'll just use it as a table runner for me!
