These dolls are more whimsical:
I spun the yarn and then wove them on potholder looms and combined them will all kinds of mixed media: Leather, wood, stones, metal, wire, buttons and more….

I absolutely love potholder looms. They’re portable, they are a pleasure to weave on (unless you get a really wobbly, twistie plastic one that lets you down. But, a sturdy plastic one can be a great pleasure!)
They are humble, simple little looms whose creative potential is totally under estimated!
I didn’t have one as a […]
I have been weaving and weaving and weaving, and playing with sticks and stones……..
I’ve been making woven dolls that are healing dolls, comfort dolls, metaphor dolls, dream dolls…….
When I carved the shoes for one of the dolls, I remembered a wonderful line from the old tv series: Northern Exposure. An obnoxious young musician was told […]
For the love of knitting, crochet, spoolknitting, spinning and weaving!
