I used the same idea for the dog. I found a Scottie dog on the web and traced it. Then I had it enlarged and my husband cut that one out too. I designed the spiral racks and my son made those in his high school welding class. They're heavy, but make great displays. Thanks for your comments.

Really beautiful. I'm weaving scarves with handspun Jacob now. I'll definitely use your idea on the extra warp threads on the next one. Second that! Really beautiful.

Do you also make your own display equipment? The silhouette cut-outs and the free-standing racks could be sculptural pieces by themselves! Your work is beautiful.

I have woven up my handspun Jacob wool using it as warp and weft, but was frustrated by the selvedge ends breaking too. Great idea, I will do this next time. Just beautiful!

How nice to find a shearer that you like. Karen had a lamb that had gray spots, just like your ewe. The first of ours are being shorn on Sunday and they have been in the barn all week so they could dry out. Your sunny pictures are pretty to look at! Wow, it looks like you had a great day!
