Working on a quick non-objective piece. My arms hurt after I work on piece for a bit, it takes a lot of pressure to get heavy yarn through cotton fabric. This piece is on linen, which is a much looser weave. Wanted to see if it will help. Anyone else working on linen? What is your favorite, if you don't mind sharing! #handweaving #handembroidery #abstractembroidery #yarnembroidery #wip #linenfabric

Next you gotta cut your fabric to size, iron each piece, stretch it in the hoop and finally trim with pinking shears to keep from fraying. Since I don't like this part, I did a bunch Soni wouldn't have to do it again for a while!

14" Hoop Finished this piece last night. I am happy again with how the figure incorporated into the composition, not as thrilled with the fringe at the bottom, but I was dying to try it as I see a lot of weavers use fringe. I think I prefer my fluff in the circle, what do you think?

Also, went a little back to the sampler style this time with different shapes, but it feels too busy again so I need to find a happy medium between the last one and this one!
