It's so satisfying cutting handwoven fabric off the loom - this is what I have been weaving lately!

It's always exciting cutting a tapestry off the loom!

Yes, you read that right ... randomly, this reel that I created on Instagram, and automatically posted to my Facebook page now has 699,000 views (and counting!).  CRAZY!A few trolls have commented, but I have thick skin, haha!

‘Road Trip: The Murray Bridge Bunyip’After about 140 hours of weaving (and a few more hours of finishing the hem to go) - here she is in all her glory!This tapestry will be included in my Summer Solstice collection that will be released in December, but please DM me (or share with someone who you think may want her!) if you are interested in giving Bertha a new home :D

OK, I have a confession …I was all set for finishing a commission for a beautiful soul on Sunday.But weaving is not always straightforward.I made ONE error while dressing the loom.Hours later, I still hadn’t noticed.Until - HALF WAY THROUGH THE SCARF! - I thought ‘hmmm, that doesn’t look right’.There was nothing else to do … I cut it off the loom and STARTED AGAIN!It really has to be PERFECT before it gets delivered to YOU ;)You can find all my delicious handwovens here on my website :D
