Wish we lived closer, I'd love to see you weave. Congratulations. You could sell those. I am impressed that you figured it out. Too complicated for me. I just have a frame loom. Have a ton of farmgirl fun.

Bonnie,
I spent MONTHS researching and was terrified at beginning the "Project!" I kept putting it off and then when I had all my supplies ready I just dove in. Typical response for me. I do plan on marketing the rugs once I get good at it. Online and a few festivals-I kind of miss the circuit I did when I had my own soap business going. I just felt after seven years of marketing my hand-crafted soap I lost any kind of creative input other than how I dressed my tables at the shows-By weaving my rugs I can have that creative outlet in a different way. Thanks so much for the congratulations-It's very encouraging!!
Ah, Melody...don't know how I could have missed this thread. I love, love weaving! Just read through all the posts..you are very determined. Warping has always been the most daunting thing for me. You have done a wonderful job, and I just love your finished rug! Onward and Upward! Please continue to share pics with us as you weave!
