table loom : stick shuttles

This is what happens when a rummage sale takes place and you walk away with a beautiful and otherworldly find for next to nothing.

Can you say, "I just acquired a Schact table loom, Wolf Pup loom and two warping boards for a pithy little sum of money", three time really fast without letting your voice get to high and squeaky like mine did? If so you are a far calmer and nobler person than I am.

A weaving class has been on my short list of things to do for quite a while now. Our local Fort Worth Weavers Guild is very active and meets quite often offering classes and the like.

Now might just be the time to run and attend a class/meeting or two.

The stars seem to be aligning lately. I had just ordered flax top for spinning in an attempt to educate myself on the process. Now it seems I might be able to spin flax for the weft to weave homespun fabric??
