Finally Back at the Village

Yesterday I finally went back to my volunteering in the Weaving Shoppe at Greenfield Village.  Ankle is not strong enough to weave on the Jacquard and climb those steep steps upstairs.

It was fun to see some of the patterns that I helped plan last winter being woven.  This is on the fly shuttle loom.  Particularly like how the white between the colors sets off the stripes.



This windowpane design was selected by me and both Max and I did the planning.   It is being woven upstairs.
All patterns and colors need to be historically accurate for the time.
