No-Tears Repair Heddle

source

So you’ve warped the loom and you’ve started to weave. Uh-oh, something is not right. You check, and sure enough, one thread is on the wrong shaft.

The only solution (other than rethreading every warp thread between the selvedge and the error) is to create a new heddle for the correct shaft and rethread the errant warp end. Some manufacturers offer steel “repair” heddles that can be clipped to shaft bars, but it’s easy to make your own by following Interweave's tips.

Embroidery is making a comeback, especially with the Year of Stitches projects. Vicky B. and Sandy W. introduced that challenge to Guild members in January.

Muse of the Morning has a handy stitch booklet that can be printed and placed on a ring for easy reference of embroidery stitches.

Three sets of free templates are offered.

Child's Play Tent

This indoor/outdoor play tent is the perfect hideaway for any child, and it's an easy, fun project that shouldn't intimidate any adult. This is probably one of the easiest projects you could make for a child. As an added bonus this tent folds flat for easy storage!

A complete tutorial for constructing the Child's Play Tent can be found on Just Another Hang Up website.
