One Warped Girl

One Warped Girl I love to weave on 4-100 year old Union Rug looms. I make custom rugs, runners & placemats. I have four 100 year old Union Rug Looms that I weave on.

I keep three warped for rugs and the other for table runners. I love to weave and wish I could weave every day. There is a lot of preparation that goes into the process of weaving a rug. Once the loom is warped up and ready to go, I get the fabric ready to weave. Cotton fabrics are cut into long strips and then I fold them over into thirds and run a line of stitches down the fabric so the back sid

e of the fabric does not flip and show up in the rug. All strips are sewn together into one continuous piece. The strips are then wrapped onto shuttles. The shuttles are used to weave the material through the warp. Once a rug is complete, it gets wrapped onto the carpet roll and when I have 10-12 rugs done, I cut the entire roll off of the loom, cut the warp between the rugs and then I hand tie the fringe at both ends. I love to weave different materials, and have recently discovered upholstery selvedge. It is a long fringe-like edge that is on the end of material made for making upholstery. It weaves the most beautiful, thick rugs. I also enjoy doing custom orders. I also love to sew and quilt. I am a Fabricologist! I love most textiles and love to find interesting fabrics to tear up and weave into beautiful rugs and runners.

I am having so much fun with all these colorful batiks! This one is a creamy white with the palest tinge of pink with large lipstick pink hashtags. I love the bright splashes of random color when it is woven.

I love batik fabric because it is the same color on both the front & back. Ordinarily, I have to carefully fold the fabric so the backside does not show, but with batiks, I can just weave and not worry about it. This gorgeous fabric is now in a rug & a runner. The rug has cream warp which lightens up the fabric. The runner has multicolored warp which really sets off the vivid colors in the fabric. I like the runner the most.

It has been too long since my “runner” loom was warped up. It feels good to be weaving again. This was a pretty batik tablecloth, but will now be a runner.
