I am working on a large series of woven and mixed fiber media pieces that I am calling: Woven Women.
I am almost done a fairly large piece, called: Mermaid’s Song: PLEASE DO NOT PIN THESE IMAGES
She’s large- 6 ft by 2ft, and hard to photograph in my studio, so I figured that I would show a video of her.
I used small looms, knitting, crochet, tatting, spoolknitting and flower looms to make her, along with copper foil work.
Some of the looms were: 2 inch square vintage weave it loom, potholder loom, pinboard looms, Martha Stewart loom and flower looms.

And, here’s the video:
Remember: The size of your loom doesn’t limit the size of your finished piece!
Happy weaving!

















I could not love this more! So beautiful!
Thank you so much, Tanya! She was a joy to create, and I am weaving many sisters for her!!!!
(Working on a solo show as well as pieces for a group show)
Hey there Noreen:
These creations are all quite beautiful. I smell a book coming around. LOL At least I am hoping that something of this sort or even a guidance pattern will be coming up soon.
They are all quite beautiful.

Hi Debbie
Oh! I hadn’t even thought about a book…. that’s an idea, for sure! At this point, they are part of a large series that I am working on for a one woman show. But a book does make sense… thanks so much for the inspiration
Noreen-She is beautiful, outrageous, one of a kind. ONLY you could create such a piece of artwork.

Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
How wonderful to hear from you, and thank you and huge hugs!
A book would naturally follow your show, Noreen. This is beautiful. You are so adept at creating large pieces. Sharecropper aka Margaret Moore Holmberg
Thank you so much, Margaret. I took a slew of photos of the process of building the mermaid, and also of ‘Dreaming the Well’ http://tottietalkscrafts.com/2012/03/09/peg-loom-tapestry-dreaming-the-well/, but not quite as many. I am thinking that I should probably photograph the process of building the Woven Women more thoroughly so I can do a book…. Thank you so much for the encouragement to do this!!!!
This is beautiful.
Thank you so much, Diane! She was a joy to create! I actually had to set up an extra large workbench in my studio to accommodate her while I was building her! She’s life size!!!
WOW I am just in awe of what you do ! I wish I could get my brain to go were yours goes. Beautiful !! (almost done with mermaid scarf)
Aw, thank you,Carolee, and bless your heart! Hope you are having fun crocheting your mermaid scarf!!!!
WOWEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How I wish I could see your show. She looks like something from a lovely dream xx
Thank you so much, Caroline! I would love to have the Woven Women travel to England! They would like that, too!
What a lovely thought!
Awesome, I love your freeform mermaid!
