Follow me. . .

Dearest readers,

I owe you an explanation.  For a couple years now I've been posting pretty much every week, usually on Wednesdays.  In mid-2016 I waded back into the social media waters on Facebook and Instagram . . . and I'm finding that a very rewarding (for the most part!) way to connect with other fiber artists and friends all over.  But as you all know it's also time-consuming.

So for 2017 I'm going to shift to a twice-a-month schedule for this blog, aiming for every other Wednesday.   Please stay with me!  I think my content will be stronger with less pressure to publish every week.

And please. . . (you knew it was coming) Like me on Facebook (Molly Elkind Handwovens) and follow me on Instagram, @mpelkind.  I'll try to post to these outlets every time I post to the blog.

Today, here's what I put on Facebook:

For my fellow tapestry geeks, especially all who were so helpful last week. . . Here's a progress shot showing the 2/2 twill weave in 2 strands of black Frid, forming the border at the bottom and up the left side. It's fiendishly difficult to photograph but I think you can see the texture difference between the twill and the plain weave areas in gray. By the way I'm enjoying weaving on the floor loom! Different, but fun.

XOXO
