My Weaving Projects

This is a Mother Bear. I used my Weaving Square from Lacis to create her body, my 4x6" weavette loom to create her skirt and a Flower Loom to create the sun flower she's wearing in front. She stands 12" like I was hoping for.

My first woven throw on my 5 foot Square Loom build by Carol Kaiser (can't think of the company nor the owners full name but she published a book on continuous weaving and this photograph is in the book.

Pink Scarf I wove for a former Co-Worker as a farewell gift to her new job

Me sitting on my Living room Floor weaving my 1st back strap belt from directions by Lorraine Waddington

On-going weaving project using my different sized Weavette Looms with hand spun yarns.  The black outline is black commercial yarn.  This will be a blanket for a California King Sized Bed.

This piece was woven on a 12" square Hazel Rose Weaving Loom and cross stitched with crewel wool yarn.  This will be a pillow once the 2nd square is woven.



This is my half woven back strap belt of plain cotton yarn.  This is the piece I'm pictured working on in the 7th photo from the top.

Another style of loom.  Very portable.

The portable loom once it's warped with the first row of weft.

This is the top half of the woven back strap belt which is almost completed.

2nd Woven blanket on my 5 Foot Square continuous weaving loom.  This was make as a gift exchange at my job.

This is my 3rd Woven blanket on my 5 Foot Square Loom.  This piece is a Christmas Gift for my Mom.

My first woven shawl on my Beka Loom since I join the Serendipity Spinning Guild, we decided one day to weave shawls and scarves to donate.

This is my 5th scarf I ever woven to give to charity.  I woven this piece after I wove the shawl above.

This is my 2nd Saori Woven piece.  I haven't decided what to make from this fabric, but I did entered it in the local County Fair (Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton, California) and got 1st place.  I never entered just a plain woven piece at a fair before.

This is the center if the Saori Woven piece.  It's pretty long.  Maybe about 3 to 4 yards.

This is the other end of the Saori woven piece.



This is the very first Saori Style woven piece I ever did.  I'm on Ravelry and they have a couple of Saori weaving groups and everybody raved over this piece, plus one of the moderators in the group was making a baby blanket and collected a small woven sampler from each participant and that is where the short piece on the left was shipped off to.  I still have the large piece not decided what to do with yet.  It's large enough for a hat, bag or sweater for a baby or garment for a doll. NOT!

This is the first first Saori Style Weaving shown on my Beka Loom (that was given to me) by one of the members in one of my Crochet Guilds.  (Thank you Mary Jane Wood!).  She purchased this loom a long time ago just to try her hand a weaving and realized she couldn't figure it out and kept the loom for many years until after she met me and learned I do all types of crafts (weaving being one of them) and she gave this loom to me.  I'm yet to get a stand for it.

One of my earliest woven scarf I woven for one of my Sisters for Christmas.

This is a 2nd woven scarf for my other Sister for Christmas.  I wove this one and the blue one above on my 12" wide Ashford Knitter's Rigid Heddle Loom. 

Crocheted Fabric Basket

Crocheted Basket of 1" wide strips of fabric.  Good way to use up fabric you have no other use for.  Pretty durable for both a basket or making rugs.  I learned this in my South bay Crochet Guild in San Jose in March 2012.

Lilah Beans

I made 5 Beads about an 1-1/2" tall of polymer clay called Lilah Beans to enter in the cute contest given by Sandy Bartholomew

Day of the Dead T-Shirt

I found a cute whipsicle skeleton on a Halloween Decorative Pencil and copied the skull on the skeleton I thought was cute. I drew the skull about 2" and took some foam and made cut out of this cute skull and made a stamp. The stamped images turned out nicer than expected and ghost-like. Once my skulls were dried, I painted little color on the skulls to make them look like sugar skulls. This is the 2nd one I ever did which is for myself. I also made a larger stamp of words that say "Dias de los Muertos" on the front in full color. I'm planning on making one for my Husband, but a little different.

Hand made spindles of polymer clay

Found instructions on how to create this cute sheep in one of my Bead Making Magazines and decided to make this cutie-pie on a spindle. They were all fun to make.

Sculpted Frogs of Polymer Clay

the first two photos are the first sculpted frog I ever created from the directions of one of Christi-owner of CForiginals.com in her book "Welcome to the Jungle". She has the cutest frogs and are easy to make.
The 3rd and 4th photos are of Polymer clay beads to put on braided ropes I did on a Kumihimo Loom.

Polymer Clay Spindles

These are the home made polymer clay spindles I created after my visit to Serendipity Spinning Guild. That was fun.
