I thought you'd subscribed too, as I do see you on my list of followers, am not sure how these blog-things work out....<br />Anyway am glad you like this project, I must admit to having been rather lazy in the studio although a lot of this particular project is also taking place in my mind!! I have been doing a lot of stitching on the strange bird bag and that is coming along nicely. Will post more pics as soon as something worthwhile has developed...Saskiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10974723368542754165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254503312795252536.post-81454984316941868002012-07-05T21:19:14.173+02:002012-07-05T21:19:14.173+02:00I love this weaving and the whole project you are ...I love this weaving and the whole project you are doing.

I don't really know a lot about weaving, but just went ahead with this mini-weaving-tool: a plank of wood & lots of small nails.Saskiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10974723368542754165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254503312795252536.post-47457383199027600752012-06-20T01:00:37.472+02:002012-06-20T01:00:37.472+02:00the bone needle looks amazing! did you make it you...the bone needle looks amazing! did you make it yourself? can't wait to see how this weaving finishes up! i'm trying to think about weaving cloth pieces; i like how jude uses them. it'll take a while for that to filter through for me though. janjanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05545341224555862464noreply@blogger.com
