Weaving in 2015

2015 for me was both an amazing year and a terrible one. I managed to land a dream job, in which for the first time in 7 years I love my job and look forward to going there each day. On the other hand, there were some very difficult losses in our family. All in all, this meant that I have not had the time nor energy to update this blog since April on 2015. This year I promise to do better.

With all that was going on in 2015, my weaving did slow down by quite a bit, but that does not mean that I was not working on some projects. Over the next month I will be updating on those projects, and in order to give myself some accountability, I will outline in this post what is to come:

1. Ongoing work on heraldic garters made as a gift to a friend
2. Inkle woven pick-up trim given as a gift to a friend
3. Many ribbons made as prizes for the Fall 2015 Shrewsbury Faire
4. Reproduction of the Tablet Woven Band “Object I/7” from the Ladoga Burial Mound (this was made as an Artificer entry to the Barony of Wyvernwoode's Art&Sci Competition for 2015, which yours truly became the Champion of).

And that's all that I worked on since 2015. a very short list, but one that I will far exceed in 2016, now that things have calmed down. I am already doing research on a new project which must be completed by February. 

Here's hoping to a very busy 2016!
