I made an unusual card. The "fabric" is woven right on the card.

This one shows the colours better:

Excellent mini projects, everybody. Love that gothic alphabet, and the woven card is wonderful. Must remember that -- it's given me an idea for some fibres I've been wanting an excuse to buy from our local mill shop... :thinks:

Thank you, everyone. The next experiment will be something similar but weaving over a cut out window - that might look even better :thinks:

Actually, Serinde, I bought that thread in Scotland, both the blue wool and the shiny one. If I remember correctly, we visited loch Kathrin (sp?) and there was a huge wool shop - probably the shop of a manufacture or factory - where they were selling these little bags of sample threads. Perfect for this type of thing. :)
Oh, nice memories!! :wub:

That's what the Aberfoyle wool shop sells! That's it exactly! They are such wonderful little bags of stuff, but I never knew quite what I could do with them. Agi, you are a genius. :dance: (You must have been up by Loch Katrine? Rob Roy and all that.)

Here are the cards I made for Market day, some time ago. 2 of them didn't sell, so I thought I would pass them along to whomever is doing the next round of charity cards.
