My account will primarily consist of weaving and sheep content...trying to see if I can switch over from Meta. But make no mistake...I am a liberal who will defend the rights of marginalized people always. I will give Free Mom Hugs. I hate book banning. You get the idea. Just be kind, everyone. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️💞
In the ongoing saga of my elbows, surgery 2 was yesterday...this time on my left, rather than my right, which does make being in a splint easier for this rightie! Hoping to be back to normal activities by the end of January! 🤞🤞🤞

My three fair entries received blue ribbons, so I am very pleased (the rainbow wrap is mine, not the adorable felted reindeer! 😁🫎)! 💙💙💙 #LatahCountyFair2025 #Weaving #MultiShaftWeaving #LouetDelta #DeborahAnneLoom #JaneStaffordTextiles #LouetJane #MarjorieJaneLoom #Handspinning #SchachtLadybug🐞

Finished my muted rainbow warp, finally! I wasn't able to vend at Palouse Pride after all, but I did help at the Free Mom Hugs booth, and it was a wonderful day! #LoveIsLoveIsLove 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈

Miss Ruth had to spend a couple of nights in the hospital. We aren't sure what was wrong, but our wonderful vet took good care of her, including giving her some doses of thiamine, which perked her up. I was afraid it was polio, and if so, thiamine was what she needed. She is home and well! 🐑❤️🐑

I'm so excited to have finished all of this finally! The placemats and napkins are for a custom order, and I put extra on the dark green warp so I could weave the scarf! 💚💚💚 #Weaving #WeaversGonnaWeave #NeverStopLearning #WeaveAllTheThings #LouetDelta #DeborahAnneLoom

Finishing up the warp from the #SouthernCounterpanes workshop! Someday I want to recreate the counterpane woven by my great-grandmother, and although this isn't the exact pattern, it does make me happy to think about weaving as she did. #Weaving #LouetJane #MJLoom

The workshop is finished, & what a wonderful two days it was! If you ever get to take a workshop from Pat Donald, do it! She is delightful and SO knowledgeable! It was a pleasure to be able to share my great-grandmother's counterpane with such nice ladies! 🧶❤️🧶❤️🧶 #Weaving #SouthernCounterpanes

Our bestest Boi Grizz crossed the Rainbow Bridge last night. The UTI that started all of this was a symptom of t-cell lymphoma. I finally had to make the call to let him go. Grizz was truly, 100%, with no reservations, my heart dog. He will be missed forever. 😢🐕🌈❤️
