Creations Looming

Creations Looming I love to weave rugs, towels, scarves and other household items. The weaving world has gazillions of patterns and I would love to weave them all.

I weave rugs on a 4 harness LeClerc loom. I use recycled materials such as, upholstery remnants, jeans, t-shirts and bed sheets. I also make scarves using various kinds of yarns.

I took a class with a fellow artist Megan Hammer and we made felted bowls. It was such a fun class and so fun to see what your creation will look like when it is complete and dry.

If you have a chance visit Megan Hammer Art at Mainframe Studios on First Friday at Mainframe Studios, or stop by her booth at the DSM Art Festival and tell her Shari sent you! You can even check out her FB page. You won't be disappointed.

The DM Weavers & Spinners Guild challenge this year was S.A.B.L.E (Stash Accumlation Beyond Life Expectancy). The guild made up bags of fiber for, 4 shaft, rigid heddle, tapestry, Inkle weaving and spinning. We were to take a bag create something and NOT bring the leftovers back to the guild. We could use more fiber but we could not discard anything..

I had a small amount of blue chenille and a skein of 5/2 hand dyed tencel in my 4 shaft bag. I decided to use it on my rigid heddle loom where I could design as I warped it. I added a yellow chenille to help. I made a scarf or shawl.

With the left over yarn I made a little basket or nest in this case for Peter Rabbit.

All the members did an amazing job and if you would like to see more stop by Fiberfest April 25th. There will be a guild display.

I have returned from another weaving adventure! I was able to attend Weave Together 2026 in Loveland Colorado. Talk about a fun, learning experience! I felt like such a big girl traveling to Denver by myself, meeting friends and making new friends and learning new skills. I can't wait to put to use all the new ideas I have learned the last 3 weeks. Time to get to work!!

A couple of Boundweave samplers I wove in a zoom class with the great Jennie Hawkey a couple of weekends ago. It is so fun to learn new patterns and techniques.

Jennie is teaching a class on Monk's belt at the Des Moines Weavers Guilf April 25th & 26th if anyone is interested.

I spent some time at PIGS Wednesday-Friday of last week. People In Glorious Socks. It was so fun and inspiring being with others who love to make socks, (and other items). I was able to crank 7 socks and a baby doll hat.

I even had the golden ticket and walked away with a 3D printed cone winder! ๐Ÿฅณ
