This account will focus on my weaving which takes place on a hill overlooking the Assiniboine valley. A place surrounded by nature and its beauty.

These colours are not true unfortunately. In real life they are bright and spring like. Watch for the finished product.

Working on some linen bread bags using the doubleweave technique. Even in this dry cold the linen is cooperating.

Well the title is a good start. A possible new Prime Minister who cares about climate change, fairer financial systems. Words I have read so far solidarity, fairness, responsibility, and compassion. How refreshing

I was honoured to be featured as one of the Creators of Louet. Was asked the day I was getting ready to leave Instagram. Still hoping to finish migration to Bluesky soon.

My favourite is the Spring and yes texsolv heddles. The only downside is the tie up of countermarch but the weaving is divine. Smooth quiet I have 12 shafts so lots of flexibility

Not a fan of jack looms. I had baby wolf and found it very noisy. I would actually recommend the Jane table loom and stand combo. Or a smaller Louet floor loom. Louet continues to improve their looms I have two and love them. I also love Leclerc looms but haven’t tried the compact.
