I have taken up weaving, something I thought I would forever leave to others. I’m collecting all of the craft techniques and weaving just wasn’t my style. To slow, to methodical.
Band weaving, yes! Small scale tapestry, maybe. But like, real big loom action? Nah. But I just finished my first self drafted half fill costume fabric and I’m hooked.
Yes, there’s a mistake in the middle. But I’m going to be making it into a bodice, where the mistake will disappear into the garment piecing. Yes the process was long and slow, but shuttling on a good day is better than deep breathing meditation. I’ve never been so satisfied with the state of things.
I guess I’m a weaver too now. So I am become a creator of fabrics.
