What happened since last January?

Sorry for not having updated my blog lately... just too busy I guess :-)

What happened since last January?

A new duvet cover set for one of our guest room, I made the duvet cover with the flat sheet and some corduroy fabric recycled from another bed cover. That makes a nice winter set.
















Nothing to do with weaving but I was finally able to get braces. Some things in life take more time than others... priorities and budget limitation.







I also started making a second warp beam to go with the ratchet wheel I bought this winter from Dawn McCarthy for my Standard 110.


I also took a 6 weeks (one half day per week) tapestry course from the Centre des Textiles Contemporains de Montréal (http://www.textiles-mtl.com/en/) which I highly appreciated and recommend!



This week, I finally was able to continue working on the double warp beam project. Here we see one of the sides that will hold both pairs of back and warp beams.


















And here what will become the second back beam along with the existing one.

Keeping busy, I told you!
