Great New Crafts Hobby

I'm really having fun going to the "seniors" activities on Sundays. First we exercise led by a very professional neighbor. Her type of exercises are based on yoga and are nothing like what I learned and taught a gazillion years ago. After that I stay for the Arts & Crafts. I must admit that they are my very favorite two activities. I just don't make time to do anything else on Sundays.

This week we did weaving. Now, in all honesty, the last time I did weaving was when I taught my daughters how to make pot-holders on those square looms with loops of cotton jersey. Does anyone else remember making those?

I also have some vague memories of "Indian" basket-weaving being taught at Jones Beach. My mother used to love to take us to those sorts of activities there.

The weaving we learned how to do was with a similar fabric but long and unlooped. I cut off some long pieces of various colors and then started my "masterpiece." I think I bit off more than I could chew, as the saying goes, since I took a large loom and refused to just weave one color at  at time lines.  I started one of my abstract inspirations. And since we could take them home with yarn, I sure idid.

Since I've busy most of the week. I wonder how long it will take me to get this weaving project finished. And, no, I haven't a clue what I'm going to do with it.
