Weaving of the Past!

We've been unpacking Christmas decorations and memories of the past

come flooding back as I pull out each item.

When I look at these memories, I'm always amazed that I really

made it!!

This little Santa was woven about 35 years ago--

I wove tartan fabric and then decided to make Santas

for each of the family members--this one was made

for my side of the family--the only reason I have this one

is because that family member passed away and Santa

was returned to me--I was happy to have it as I didn't make

one for our family.

This is the Bailey Tartan--loved the colors!

This was during my tartan phase that I was weaving

tartan fabric!

Each Santa carried in his stocking the Tartan information

This is the first weaving I did for Christmas--about 40 years ago--surprised I

still have it!  It is double weave, woven right after I learned to

weave!  Unbelievable that I tried double weave as a new

weaver--but, I remember I was weaving from Big Book of Weaving

and did each 'recipe' step by step!

Here is his backside--I'm thrilled I have these memories from

past weavings--not often I keep anything for my collection.

Guess I'd better write up some description of Santa and 

attach to him for years future.
