Loom weaving

My latest adventure is loom weaving! This is one of the things that I do during my long winter "holidays".
I have a 2 shaft loom



and I just finished preparing a beautiful warping basket... isn't it beautiful? And, I promise, it's also very useful!



Next steps will be finishing more balls for my warp, warping the loom (it takes forever!) and starting my first independent project!
... after all, I think I hope it snows so that I'll have an excuse to lock myself in and weave!

Dearest, one of my interests would be to make hand made ceramic buttons for hand loomed pieces. I can think of no one I would rather do that with than you. What fun it would be... I love your loom, and can picture you at it.
