Recently, I celebrated a birthday--just another day in the real world. I do have special people in my life who make the day just a little brighter and joyful. Two of my friends worked together to create unique gifts for me. Something I've never attempted or wanted to learn. And I'm done quite a few crafts in my lifetime. They gave me these interesting weavings from a small loom.
Did you ever have one of those little loom for potholder ? That's not how I started weaving--
it would have been a great introduction though--learning over under, etc.
They worked very hard to find different patterns and of course, got some of my favorite color in the mix--orange!
Stitched Modern has tutorials for this project. My friends are still learning new and different
patterns--well, after all they have the looms and all those loops that need to find a home.
Popshop America has several suggestions.
and I leave you with the best possible thing you can do with a small loom
comes from my friend, Sharon Crary, who has won numerous awards with
her small loom weavings.

Thank you my friends for sharing your talents with me--I'll enjoy and share my
potholders with everyone!
