After decades of being in awe of Nancy’s weaving prowess, I was delighted to take her first class in her gorgeous new weaving studio. I was truly pleased and amazed at how well my first project came out. I love it! I’d assumed it would take awhile to make something I would be pleased with, but with the attention to technique and detail that I’ve learned from Nancy, its all been very satisfying!
I have moved on to Nancy’s large floor loom and am having great fun making rag rugs. I started with my family’s rag box and soon found I like weaving with towels.
I had wanted to achieve some balance in my life; including a creative mode…weaving has become that and is now an important part of my life. I enjoy the build up of anticipation in the slow warping process and then the great satisfaction of playing with colors and the seeing the emerging patterns as I weave. I am looking forward to warping a loom I received for Christmas which belonged to my partner’s grandmother!
