Scary slow progress

Usually my slow progress is because life gets in the way of weaving.  For my current (and first) diversified plain weave project the slow progress is because I found I needed to slow down my weaving.

I am probably about average in weaving speed.  Since I am a hobby weaver, I can go at a consistent pace that is not overly tiring.  With this project I need to take extra care with my beat and advance my warp more often.

I am very happy with the look of the piece as it takes shape. It really looks like fiber pixels.  I love the oversized design in chenille.  ( You may recognize this as Susan Poague's  project from Handwoven Mag #160) And so far tension has not been an issue.


Maybe I will have this done by Halloween!
