That last little bit of lizard toe? It’s long gone. This week I am making significant progress on the tapestry. My pace is picking up and the end is in view. What a joy ride this has been!
I am closing in on the final ten centimeters. That means it’s time to evaluate the ten centimeters just passed. And to make a few more butterflies, enough to take me all the way to the end.
Forgiven people forgive. Think of forgiveness as the lavish supply of yarn that’s been given us through the name of Jesus. There is no shortage. And we make our butterflies from that supply. People fail us, disappoint, and even do damage. Being ready to forgive is like making butterflies in advance. Thankfully, our small wool butterflies are close at hand for us to weave grace in the moment it is needed.
May you have a lavish supply.
Love,
Karen
I cannot wait to see this off the loom!
Hi Beth, That will be an exciting day for all of us!
Happy weaving,
Karen
How many hours a week do you spend weaving, on average? I’m trying to weave more and think/read about weaving less! I need a role model!!

I’m really excited to see this piece off the loom. Though I’ve followed all of your posts, the image I have of the entire piece is very vague!!
Hi Marjorie, I probably average about 1-2 hours at the loom a day. I always wish I had more hours to spend weaving. I try to do all my chores and other responsibilities first in the day, because once I sit down at the loom I don’t want to leave. And, any day without weaving feels incomplete.
I do track my weaving time on an app–it says I spent right about 14 hours weaving this past week.
I have the printed image by my loom as I weave, and I still have a hard time reconciling what I see on the loom to that complete image. I’m super eager to see it rolled out!
Happy weaving,
Karen
I’m looking forward to seeing the finished tapestry. It will be wonderful, i’ Sure!
That should have said, “I’m sure!”
Hi D’Anne, It will be fun to see the whole thing at once! If everything works out, I’ll bring it to WOW when it’s finished.
Happy weaving,
Karen
It is exciting anticipating the completion.
Hi Nannette, Yes, indeed. Slowly but surely, it’s coming!
Happy weaving,
Karen
