Progress

I signed in today to post something hopefully interesting and found out that I have a follower. YEAH! Thanks, Debbi.

Yesterday i wove three rugs. All of the rugs on that warp so far are from recycled materials. Things that would have previously gone to a landfill but I am now making used of them. I want to make a sign for my booth something like "Ask Me about My 'Green' Weaving." People always like to hear what these are made from.

Yesterday when i was weaving I saw an ad on TV about getting a reusable shopping tote. Inspiration, I could weave tote bags on this warp. I wonder if people would be willing to pay enough for these. I have several balls of denim strips from cut up jeans. I think that would make some good bags. I also have rolls of material cut from the ends of decorating yardage. They would not be as heavy duty, but colorful. So many things that I want to weave and so little time.
