Throwback This is one of the earliest samples I wove on my current loom, more than 12 years ago now. It uses extremes of yarns - wool that felts, fine Lurex, linen and silk. I love the experimental nature of this piece. #marchmeetthemaker with @joannehawker #woventextiledesign #smallbusiness #designermaker #veronicaweaves #etsymaker #woventextiles #weaver #weaversofinstagram #slowdesign #contemporarycraft #warpandweft #loomweaving #handwoven #buylocal #buylessbuywell #makersmovement #sustainable #artist #fibreart #fiberart #colour #interiordesign #interiortextiles #scarves #handwovenwrap #experimentaltextiles #throwback #throwbackthursday #armloom

Design process The initial inspiration leads to a colour sketch. Yarns for the warp are then chosen based on the colours, weave structure I want to use and final effect I want to achieve. I have a library of samples that I’ve built up over the years for reference. Working out the warp also involves some maths, calculating the thread count and how much of each yarn to use. The threading of the heddles on the loom also needs to be worked out. All this preparation, before I even go near the loom... #marchmeetthemaker with @joannehawker #woventextiledesign #smallbusiness #designermaker #veronicaweaves #etsymaker #woventextiles #weaver #weaversofinstagram #slowdesign #contemporarycraft #warpandweft #loomweaving #handwoven #buylocal #buylessbuywell #makersmovement #sustainable #artist #fibreart #fiberart #colour #interiordesign #interiortextiles #scarves #handwovenwrap #rothko

Mistakes/lessons Experimenting with yarns inevitably comes with mistakes, but in amongst the mistakes are valuable lessons that can lead to some beautiful weave structures. #marchmeetthemaker with @joannehawker #woventextiledesign #smallbusiness #designermaker #veronicaweaves #etsymaker #woventextiles #weaver #weaversofinstagram #slowdesign #contemporarycraft #warpandweft #loomweaving #handwoven #buylocal #buylessbuywell #makersmovement #sustainable #artist #fibreart #fiberart #colour #interiordesign #interiortextiles #wallhanging #softfurnishings

What I’m working on Blending colours for cushion fabric; inspired by the Hebridean coastline. #marchmeetthemaker with @joannehawker #woventextiledesign #smallbusiness #designermaker #veronicaweaves #etsymaker #woventextiles #weaver #weaversofinstagram #slowdesign #contemporarycraft #warpandweft #loomweaving #handwoven #buylocal #buylessbuywell #makersmovement #sustainable #artist #fibreart #fiberart #colour #interiordesign #interiortextiles #cushion #softfurnishings

Workspace Each warp I make uses at least five different yarns, usually more as in this case. My workspace can become quite untidy when I’m working out which yarns to use. #marchmeetthemaker with @joannehawker #woventextiledesign #smallbusiness #designermaker #veronicaweaves #etsymaker #woventextiles #weaver #weaversofinstagram #slowdesign #contemporarycraft #warpandweft #loomweaving #handwoven #buylocal #buylessbuywell #makersmovement #sustainable #artist #fibreart #fiberart #colour
