Quilters Learn to Weave


Last weekend I had so much fun introducing weaving to a group of fiber crafters who are mostly quilters. They learned how easy it is to set up rigid heddle looms using a variety of Schact's 15 inch Cricket and Flip looms

Carola and Jean at work
With their pre-cut fabric strips they learned to blend their choice of colors together in the weft and each created a unique table runner.




Finishing the edges

Their finished runners are all so beautiful!
