What a time I had trying to figure out how to scan these photos that Faye gave me and then get them on the blog. I am terribly computer illiterate but I do try. Picture #1 is "Dazzling" (from the Diamonds booklet) and she's done the weaving in a few different greens with a medium yellow that makes it look, well, dazzling, doesn't it? Picture #2 is our all-time favorite "Marquise" from the same Diamonds booklet. It was done in various shades of pinks and rose. These pictures are not good…

It's time for another episode of the School of Weaving that builds on everything we've learned about Huck. Swedish Lace is Huck's cousin. They live on the same side of Lace Street. Swedish Lace units are the same as Huck's but in Swedish Lace we are allowed to repeat those units as many times as we want. Ms. Swedish Lace is a little more lenient :) When we understand how this works, it means we can use Swedish Lace and Huck in one piece....as you will see in our show and tell…
