#5 As well as gifting us the #TonySmithLoom Rachel Smith showed us examples of his beautiful work - our weavers were mightily impressed.

The loom is up, the Carnegie Centre for Weaving is on its way to bring us #BacktoLife!

The new loom is in! #3

Gifted from Whitley Bay, transported across the Irish Sea, delivered to north Belfast, now just to reassemble it as donor Tony Smith has instructed!

The new loom is up!

#4 in #TonySmithLoom thread (pun intended)

Tony Smith and daughter Rachel have gifted a tapestry loom for our Carnegie Centre for Weaving.

It has crossed the choppy Irish Sea from Whitley Bay, been delivered to North Belfast and is now reassembled in our upstairs studio

The new loom has arrived in Belfast from Whitley Bay! #2 #TonySmithLoom

The gift from Tony Smith and his daughter @rachelsmith71 is an amazingly generous gift for our Carnegie Centre for Weaving.
Now to bring it #BacktoLife…

New loom!

Thanks to Tony in Yorkshire and Rachel Smith in Belfast, we’ve been gifted the family tapestry loom for our weaving centre.

Amazing generosity.

Here Tony weaves his last material, before disassembling and packing it up for the choppy Irish Sea crossing.
