Windmill and Taildragger on the Drawloom
Lovely! Nice to see the inspiration. You really captured the complex and s..l..o..w process and also the creative joy that weaving brings. And the photography is great. Thanks for sharing this. ❤
Thank you so much!
So pretty ... thank you for the inspiration!
Thank you!
So, you're turning it to the outside, I'm assuming you turun it the opposite on the right side?
Great tip, I'll try that on my next project!
This video was fantastic. Nowhere could I find this type of information. Thank you
Thank you! I’m so happy you found it helpful.
Hi Karen Thanks for the video. Do any tie up cords to the lamms go through the warp.
I am thinking of buying this loom. Do you like it and is it easy to thread with shafts swinging about. I have a baby wolf loom and its rather noisy but i am not sure the Julia will be much quieter. The yarn you purchased looks lovely. Where do you purchase your yarn from. Thank you for the video.
Thank you!..🌹
999. lol
Lovely weaving. Is it weft-faced tapestry weaving?
Love this.
I love rosepath from the Davison book.
Please respond. Is it possible to reduce Temple Glimakra 40-66 inches) to the required 28 -20 inches.
This is Amazing 😮
Thank you!
Amazing! I do a bit of inkle weaving. Its really Ho hum after seeing this. And your woodworking friend does beautiful work!
Thank you!
Sure do miss your videos! You are amazing
Thank you! I appreciate your encouragement.
Hey Jill! Are you weaving?
Hello dear sister, Nancy. Yes, I am weaving again. I had not been able to do so for quite a while. I'm very happy to be back at it. I am happy you checked in with me. Hugs. Jill
Thank you
Gorgeous!, may I ask what kind of yarn you used?
Thank you! The thread I used for these towels is 22/2 Bockens Cottolin (60 cotton/40 linen blend). I like Cottolin for towels because the cotton makes them soft and the linen makes them absorbent.
Great tips! You're too cute. 😊👍👍👍
Hi Karen. Really nice and clear explanation. What kind of yarn and size are you using for this one? I'm aiming to make something similar. Thank you ❤️
The warp and weft threads for these towels is 22/2 Cottolin by Bockens. The towels are soft and super absorbent. Thank you!
@@karenisenhower9886 thank you so much for your answer, Karen. Your videos are very clear and helpful, please keep posting 😆❤️
Is this a two-sided block design? I have not tried one but I love the look you are getting.
Hi Ellen, Yes, this is a two-sided block design. It's called double binding. It's a favorite of mine for weaving rag rugs. So much design potential.
May I ask what the foot is you're using on your sewing machine at the 2:59 mark?
Hi Tracy, the foot on my Bernina sewing machine is a Bernina walking foot with the seam guide sole.
Thank you, Karen.
It's my pleasure!
Being from Texas, and my husband being a pilot, I loved the sentinel windmill with the taildragger parked next to it! Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you! I’m so glad you like the taildragger and windmill - it was a gift for special friends.
Thank you for demonstrating this process I haven’t used a temple yet, but it’s nice to know all the tips and tricks just in case.
The temple is one of my favorite tools. So simple, and so effective. Thanks for commenting!
Thanks for all the tips. Newbie here haven’t woven a rug yet, but it’s on my list.
Glad you found it helpful! You will enjoy weaving rugs!!
How do you like Julia? I was very close to purchasing one and decided it was scary going from a jack loom to countermarche.
I really enjoy the Julia! Countermarch is my favorite way to weave, and the Julia is great for that! I know a lot of people who have gone from Jack loom to countermarch and like it. There's a learning curve, but it's not hard.
Lovely lady, and a lovely video, thank you for sharing! I have only heard about a ski shuttle and never seen one in action. I do believe I now need one for my rigid heddle loom 😂 It's nearly Christmas, so wishing you all the best for a peaceful and happy time and a great 2023! x
I'm interesting to find out about the fabrics you use. Do you go to fabric stores and purchase colors and designs you have in mind for a project? Also, is that a Counter Marche loom?
@@Jill4Today Yes, I do purchase new 100% cotton fabric in colors and prints for my projects. I often find enough in my stash, though, so I only purchase a little more to get started. Yes, this is a Glimakra Ideal countermarch - perfect for rag rugs.
Thank you so much! Ski shuttles are great if they have a low profile to fit in a smaller shed.
Hi Karen, thank you so much for the prompt reply. I am currently awaiting the delivery of my new David 3 43" loom. I'm very excited to get it. It's a sinking shed so there will be a learning curve but I felt less so than the Julia. ( At one point in my weaving "history" I had a 60" 12 harness. Way too much loom!) I'm amazed at how hard you can bang that Glimacra beater bar when weaving your rag rugs. It shows the sign of a well-built loom!
What a great idea, to weave through such a foundational book. For a relative (3yr) newbie like myself I can imagine this would be such an education in weave structures.
You’re right, it was a terrific education to work through the book. I learned a lot and gained experience in many weave structures.
That clip was beautifully done. The weaving was WOWWWWWW! Excellent Job. :D
Thank you so much! It was a lot of fun to put all the projects together in one place.
I do not need another loom but I low-key want a counterbalance Julia. It's adorable and has such a small footprint.
I know what you mean. It is a great little loom. Need vs want is a good conversation to have with yourself.
Wow! Nothing about that looks easy. I admire you.
Thanks, Kelly. I understand how all this seems difficult. One step at a time, it gets easier.
Beautiful. I didn't know you could weave a tapestry on a floor loom.
Thank you, Lisa. A floor loom opens up a lot of possibilities for tapestry weaving.
thank you for the sharing
My pleasure!
So pretty❤
Thank you so much!
Beautiful! I would love to know what pattern this is.
Thank you! (Sorry, I didn't see your comment earlier) I started with a draft from The Big Book of Weaving, by Laila Lundell, p.148 Alpaca Scarf. I adjusted the size and I used 8/2 cotton in shades of blue for warp and weft.
हेलो
Gracias por enseñar estos detalles. Es la primera vez que veo cómo se usa. Saludos. 🥀
Antes quando uma pessoa dava um deslike no meu canal né tirava um escrito eu ficava triste e chorava para as vistas ficar ruim pressão ficava alta e agora eu vou assistir para desparecer minha mente Mas é isso mesmo né um bota outro tira um tira e outro bota e por aí vai ó que coisa linda esse daí todo coloridinho tudo no lugar parecendo que é contado né só pode ser que se não contar acho que não dá certo azul vermelho tudo quanto é cor lindo lindo lindo lindo bom dia
I love your channel. Your weavings are exquisite. I know this is an odd comment.... In one of your videos I got a look from a distance at a project calculator form that you were holding. I believe it may have been in the old Debbie Reddings' book. If it's the same form, I absolutely loved it. I cannot find it anywhere. If this is the form, would you mind emailing me a copy? Thanks so much
Hi Jill, I'm sorry for the delayed response. I missed seeing your comment earlier. The project form I use is one I developed for my own use. It's not something that I send out. I hope you have found something that works for you.
@Karen Isenhower hi Karen, thanks for your response. I did find a pretty good calculation form. Thanks again, Jill
I'm so glad I've found your channel
Incredible! What a gift of love and remembrance. Beautiful artistry. Thanks for sharing
Very good it's easy, thank you
Beautiful piece of work! Thanks for sharing. Always enjoy seeing your projects! 😃
Beautiful!
As a novice weaver your video was incredibly helpful :) thank you!
Absolutely beautiful! Can you share where I could find this pattern? Thank you so much.
You can find this pattern in The Big Book of Weaving, by Laila Lundell. Thank you!
@@karenisenhower9886 Thank you so much!
Just wonderful!!!! Thank you sharing this video with us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very artistic, love it!
Gorgeous. Is that the Glimakra Julia loom?
This is the same size as the Glimakra Julia, but this one was hand-built by my husband. Thank you.
