Jeanne came by to try out a picccolo loom...

 She tryed on my "artist vest" and decided to buy a  15 pound portable piccolo loom …

 So about 30 mins latter from the  box  Jeanne was weaving.  ( she has a full size saori loom at home she loves it) it was so easy to assemble!

and she was off . she arrived home at her Daughters home where she is staying for the summer and her youngesr granddaughter started weaving at 3 years old! she sent me this photo saying

 "THANKS JILL"

Joan i have know from our local weavers guild for quite a few years. 

She came to the studio with a piece of her  hand spun cotton indigo dyed  cloth she wove over a decade ago and asked me to create  and sew a top for  her out of it.

  So I made a muslin and started to go to work….

  She spun and wove a magnificent piece!

  Here is my finished design before I mailed it off to her.

   She loved and took one of my saori scarves home "calliope 2 " ... a fraternal twin pair I wove Etsy shop like to calliope 1 scarf

 Peaceful weaving in the redwoods
