Blue Blocked Towels...

Ahhhhh...new towels. Actually I've made similar ones before but thought I would sort of recreate them for summer because I'm in love with these bright, cheerful colors!







Winding the warp onto the loom using lease sticks




All wound on and ready to thread





Threading for plain weave through the heddles






Threading through heddles and then through the reed





All ready for weaving




Bobbins wound and ready to go









There, now I'm happy...I'm actually starting something new.

  4. Thank you all!!! I found these colors refreshing for me--I was tired of working on the other towels and really needed to push through and empty two looms. Now I'm ready to design a scarf and then I'm ready for MY TRIP!!! YAY! Here I come, Ginny!!! And Mary, Can I call you when I get back and come over to work on my buttons???? Dawn, your photography totally rocks!!!!!!!!
