I made this for my son, so even though now he's living so far away from me, he still can't escape my weavings.. 😅

Tiny squares of blue fabric with white twill & dark red plainweave stripes.

Spent most of the day cutting, serging, & trimming the Fine Threads Study Group samples. 20/2 cotton. They went out this afternoon. 🌞 #FTSG #ComplexWeavers #weaving #fiberarts #fibrearts

A pair of scissors laying on a partially cut off warp.

Woohoo! Champagne Friday. 🍾🥂 The warp is off the loom & the samples are in the washing machine for wet-finishing. #finethreads #complexweavers #champagnefriday #fiberarts #fibrearts #FTSG #FOFriday #weaving

A loom with a fine undyed warp of 20/2 cotton, showing a blue and ecru fabric with large flowers and diamonds.

Same draft, same liftplan, but I've switched to a blue 10/2 cotton for both ground and pattern wefts. I should end up with about 1 1/2 yds of finished fabric for a summer top. #weaving #fiberarts #warpend #slowclothes #finethreads #complexweavers

Green fabric with white flowers and diamonds in diamonds on a loom. This is the reverse side of the fabric.

Drawdown of half-double design of blue flower surrounded by diamonds of different sizes on white background. Drawdown by Henrich Woolhever, a Pennsylvania weaver, in 1821.

A good day is #weaving 500 picks of alternating undyed 20/2 cotton and dark green 2/18 wool. The structure is "half-double"; the draft is from a drawdown by Henrich Woolhever (1821). #fiberart #fibreart #finethreads #FTSG #complexweavers #historicweaving

Warp of natural 20/2 cotton crossed by wefts of, from bottom up, burgundy sewing thread; natural 20/2 cotton in plainweave; and royal blue 10/2 and natural 20/2 cotton in a half-double design by Henrich Woolhever (1821).

Adjusting the loom, warp, and fly shuttles takes a fair amount of time and futzing around. Additional discovery: I'm out of shape for the fly shuttle. 😅 1 sleying error to fix. Tomorrow. 🌞#weaving #fiberart #fibreart #artistlife #finethreads #complexweavers #FTSG #finethreadstudygroup

Cones of blue and ecru yarns on a desk in front of a computer monitor displaying the project drawdown.

Well look at that! The yarns for the next project--10/2 and 20/2 cottons--are in the studio. Time to start beaming.🌞 #weaving #fiberart #finethread #complexweavers
