Betty, I have a 4 shaft Nilus 45" over 50 years old. I'm doing a 4 thread Herringbone pattern and the colors are called English Garden. This is the first time I have spent the money to buy a kit with the colors already picked and probably won't do that again due to the cost. I also have a Harrisville 36" 4 shaft loom that…

Got some sobering news at the doctor's office yesterday--my kidney function is even lower than before and I'm feeling anxious. That was with the GP; seeing the Nephrologist on the 22 and hope the GP's lab work was wrong. So, I'll sit down at the loom and try not to dwell on it right now. I've started a set of dishtowels…

I was tickled to see the comments about the Christmas trees. I gave away my 6 foot tree last year with all the decorations I had collected for 60-odd years to my youngest son. Instead, I bought a 4 foot bare tree with a few limbs and all done in gold glitter and tiny white lights. So at Christmas, I put the few remaining…

Good morning All, I bought a variation of a Fitbit, a Garmin Vivofit, and it's nagging me already. It shows a red line if I haven't walked in a hour, then ticks more every 15 minutes if I don't get up and walk at least 2 minutes to make the red disappear. I'm an old lady, retired RN, and I did my time of being on my feet…

I love reading all these posts but it's hard for me to keep up with all of you so don't feel hurt if I don't call names and speak individually. And yes, I do tat but I do needle tatting and love it as well. I used to quilt but now my daughter-in-law is part owner of The Red Hen Quilt shop in Marietta. She's the one with…

Becca and Larisa, I have to admit, I'm a fiber addict, never have enough stash. Thank you for the welcome and I hope to be here long-term. One of my sons lives in Kirkland, just near Seattle and I've been around your area a few times. It's beautiful country; here we're pretty mountainous. Larisa, get your looms up and…

Hello, I am new to the community and love the posts on this thread. I am a bit older than many of you, 73 this June, but don't feel my age too much yet. I live in North Georgia, near Chattanooga, Tennessee and have many hobbies. I weave on a 45" Nilus LeClerc 4 harness floor loom, a Kromski Rigid Heddle loom, a Harrisville…

This is an inspirational thread and I'd like to be added. I have become a type 2 diabetic and have high blood pressure, controlled with medication. I also have a disadvantage that most of you don't have--I am 72 years old. I don't feel it until I try to do much walking and then my bones hurt from arthritis. My insurance…
