Fresh off the Camera
Trying out the rigid heddle loom with
pick up sticks. These sticks are woven in the
back behind the heddle and at certain times
in the weaving you flip them up and they form a pattern. I think it is working out pretty cool. I am trying this as a sample and weaving with 100% cotton very loosely just so I can see the pattern. Gives it kind of a lacy look. I think it will pull up when I take it off the loom and wash it. The cotton will soften and pull in.
Shadow Trapunto
Well this is what I had fun working on today. I used purple wool instead of using the usual quilt batting that is off white and placed over a dark fabric. I guess mine is a reverse shadow trapunto. Fred and Cody thought I quilted a turtle. But as most would know this is a feather quilting design. This was just a trial run. Definitely has potential for use with fibre arts and incorporating other mediums with this method. Would frame a photo really nicely.
