@weaving@fedigroups.social @fiberarts@fedigroups.social De-stash project I’ve been trying to use old yarn in every project this year, but the warp on this is all 17+ years old. The rose, pale pink and white are originally from a baby blanket whose owner is now a senior in high school. The red is from several baby blankets. Those kids are all mid 20s. The brown I got used in 1997, so who knows how old that is. This is a run of waffle weave towels. #weaving #FiberArts #textiles #yarn #craft #destash

Today's #DIY #WoodWorking project at the Yama-no-Furusatomura’s crafty hut! I actually bought the cabinet on the auction site mercari, so today’s DIY was kitting the cabinet out with a speaker, wirings, a Perspex panel for a topside jack, installing a jack panel by drilling a hole in the rear panel, and installing a faux leather handle on the side of the cabinet. I think it turned out beautifully! 👍 #Japan #summertime #weekend #craft

Yesterday I bought this fab little bag from a wonderful lady at the arts festival, it will be perfect for storing threads for cross stitch projects. We had a great discussion about how buying material/threads/yarn/any crafty stuff and then actually using them are entirely different hobbies. Anyone into crafting knows this to be true. #Sewing #Craft #CrossStitch #Cats

I found an old print of ours at #ropecon fully painted by Henri Vesanen (Insta: @figu_ukko) :owi: We printed the elven fortress about three years ago. Its not really a failure in any way, but I do fully admit we've improved a lot since then 😅 But I think that's how it goes in all endeavours; the more you do them, the better and more refined your #craft becomes 😎 So let's keep practicing my friends! #3dprinting #miniatures #resinprinting #kingsofwar #fantasy

@weaving@fedigroups.social @fiberarts@fedigroups.social Fresh off the loom: doublewidth throws in integrated plain weave. Still have to fringe, wet finish and brush. Since they are so big, I think I will step on them in the tub to full them. This is a destash project—which, of course, means I had to buy more yarn to actually do it. 😂 Those stripes are gifted yarns I have had for a couple of decades! If you don’t see me for a while, I’ll be fringing! 😅 #weaving #FiberArts #Yarn #Wool #craft #handmade

More flax processing tools. The left one is used for breaking the stalks around the fibers. Then there's various combs for refining the fibers. And a few for storing yarn once its spun on a spinning wheel. #Museum #Flax #Processing #Weaving #Spinning #Alanta #Craft

Today was mainly a work day for the students- and for me- I got the bombarder table in place, and the bombarder coil wired into the tiny, very short trolley line system. I do hope they are able to lengthen it one day by suspending the aluminum frame from the roof. Check the image captions alt text to see details on each photo. The turquoise tube is for Tommy's Diner. I am gonna ride my bike to the studio, grab the neon and walk over to the diner to meet my students for breakfast, coffee and a neon install demo at the diner. FUN! Tomorrow the students will bombard- everyone has done it once or twice now, some students are amassing a few tubes to be bombarded and filled. I hope they get to make more tomorrow and am really excited about some of their designs. I taught the students #inkscape and we have been getting them printed to scale as blueprints at copy shops. #teaching #traveling #columbus #alttext #class #neon #bombarding #training #craft #ohio #glass #art #diner #repair
