Handywoman tools in Handwoven Magazine again!

Can't believe I didn't post this already, I suppose I've been super busy.  The "My Everything Stick" is featured in Interweaves Handwoven magazine.  They sent me a copy of the issue.  So exciting!  It will also be featured in the upcoming Easy Weaving with Little Looms magazine but I haven't gotten that issue yet.  I'll be sure to share it with you as soon as I get a copy. 
I'm over the moon with joy!!!!  I am so blessed!

Treadle Tape loom update

Today I was able to work a bit on the latest treadle tape loom.  This one will be cherry and purple-heart
Once all the parts are cut out then there is sanding to do and lots of it....then I will do a dry fit and check that all is correct.  Once all is good I can put a finish on all the pieces.  Once they are dry begin the assembly.  I'm hoping this one will be done in a couple weeks. 

.  I have the Front apron, top rod and take up rod assembly pieces, the castle top, the ratchets and treadles cut out.  The top has been glued up and I scrapped the glue off today and will run it through the drum sander on Sunday and make the rest of the loom parts (heddle frame sides, legs, aprons for the legs and cut the pockets for all the rod and heddle assemblies in the base. 

Handywoman New Tapestry Shuttles

Handywoman's newest shuttle is finally off the design board!
I am happy to introduce you to the new Handywoman tapestry boat shuttle. The ends are beveled for using to beat in individual yarns as you work your pattern. The tapestry shuttle is approximately 8" long and 1 inch wide and a mere 1/2 inch thick. It uses paper quills or Handywoman glass bobbins.
