(I'm jealous.)<br /><br />I too remember when my first loom arrived. It was a Christmas present from my dh. He picked it up on the way home from work. I remember him laying under the loom putting it together after a long day (which may or may not have involved a work Christmas party.) That was Christmas of 1980.<br /><br />Love the pink and white overshot...pinks are hard to work with IMO. And so happy to see that you are back weaving prayer flags.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16226371437929271405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7850972750087291265.post-70081018423473544712014-06-25T04:15:52.215-07:002014-06-25T04:15:52.215-07:00That's the wheel I keep looking at lustfully, ...That's the wheel I keep looking at lustfully, too.

I looked at AVL website but could not find them listed. Where do I look to see about getting some for my loom?

I like to see mine in their together, even Ms. Squirrel knows better than to cause any problems. <br /><br />Glad to hear the treadle kit is working. I don't always understand all the terms you use, but I'm beginning to catch on. The two pieces you have in progress are so professional looking! Actually, they remind me of a couple coverlets in my family from way way back, Virginia roots, similar patterns, done in quilts.Cocohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13784505178222083364noreply@blogger.com
