Honestly it just sat in the box for a day. Then I assembled the loom (fairly easy assembly) and added a warp to it. For those of you who weave on various looms, this is probably the easiest warping I have ever done.

Next I took the materials that I had chosen to start with and started weaving. I must say that the shed (space where you pass the thread through to weave) is rather tight. But certainly functional. I didn't like the stick shuttles that came with it. So I pulled out one that I had for my rigid heddle loom. And started using it.
Today I have the piece woven and it is ready to be removed from the loom.
What will I do with it? I haven't decided, but I think it would look great
pieced with some fabric for a throw pillow cover.
For now I am just enjoying the process of creation.
Until Next Time,
Stay Creative

Quite colorful. I hope your enjoy your loom.
Oh, a fun new toy! Can't wait to see what beauties you will create with this one.
Weaving...wonderful.
When I saw your piece I immediately thought of a pillow :-)) Turns out that's what you were thinking of...
I once took a weaving class on a large handloom – a bit sporty for me – and I loved putting the wool threads together into patterns.
That new loom you bought would fit in my room :-))) And Belgium is just around the corner, so to speak.
I look forward to your next work...
