I am happy to say that I just finished putting warp on my loom. All knots tied and it is ready to go. I put the blue and natural warp on and now I am going to start weaving blue denim. I only had a few denim rugs left from the end of the Farmers Mkt season, so I need to make some in all lengths.
I have to make a short one first of course since I need to weave up to the knots.
I hope to start with a long one. Someone mentioned that they wanted a rug 120 inches long so that can be the first one i make after the knots are through the reed.
Look out!, I have a bunch of denim ready to put on the shuttles, so denim is going to be in the works for the next month. :^).
I have about four rugs now on each of two looms, the natural warp and the brown and beige warped looms that is.
I am well on my way to having the maximum number of rugs ready for our farmers market booth come May 7,2011.

The Farmers Mkt.
Soon we will be going to the Farmers Market. It begins in May 2011 on the Davenport Iowa river front.
We have come to the point of NO Tuesday markets anymore, or until some new day or time is worked out for the entire market.
We will miss Tuesdays, although sales were lacking, we really enjoyed being out in the warm spring, summer, and fall air.
We will continue our SATURDAY market, We will be there Sat. form 8-1. May through October.
Hope to see you all come down and see us at the Freight House Farmers Market.
I will be weaving like a mad weaver until then, Ive got to get the inventory up. I believe I will have some woven rugs that will appeal to everyone.
See you soon!
