For a couple of months now, I have been working on a large project…
I wove a shawl on my 7 foot Triangle loom from Dewberry Ridge looms:
And have been designing and weaving all manner of motifs on the Thumbelina, heart, dragonfly and 2 inch Wiz looms, to stitch to it:
I really don’t like gardening anymore, and would much rather be weaving…
So, I have created a garden on a shawl…
To wrap myself in Garden pleasures all year round.
That’s a dragonfly shawl pin that I made.
All the links to the videos to weave all the motifs are here on my blog and on my youtube channel,
so if you would like to weave yourself a fantasy garden, too, you can!
Just click on the Thumbelina category and follow those, or simply click on the back arrow, and you can scroll backwards to find all the tutorials.
Here’s a video slide show of the shawl:
The looms are all built by Dewberry Ridge Looms LINK
I am now moving deeply into a commissioned tapestry, so I won’t be here quite as often as I have been in the last few weeks, but I will be back!
Blessings until then!
Happy Weaving!

Darling download the pictures of this wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
See she has put all her little motifs on a shawl, so clever but from my experience hand woven shawls tend to be too stiff, but the effect is lovely xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She is really so clever

The drape on the shawl is glorious…. not in the least bit stiff. I’ve never had a hand woven shawl be stiff. The correct combination of yarn, loom and weaving technique always ends up in a deliciously drapey comfortable shawl. 🙂
