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 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Thrilled to have finished this scarf for my pen pal from junior high! I was so happy to hear from her and receive her request! 💚💙💚 #WeaversGonnaWeave #WeaveAllTheThings #NeverStopLearning #DeborahAnneLoom #LouetDelta #JaneStaffordTextiles #HarrisvilleShetland

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! 🐑❤️🐑

My first peg loom project! I'm amazed at how fast it goes, even with thin yarn! 🐑❤️🐑❤️🐑 #Weaving #PegLoomWeaving #PartheniaLoom #WeaversGonnaWeave #WeaveAllTheThings #NeverStopLearning #WeavingIsInMyBlood #RaggedLife

I'm super excited to be vending at Palouse Pride in September! So I'm going to hopefully be able to make several sets of towels, as well as a few scarves and tablerunners by then! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 #Weaving #Pride #LoveIsLove

I am so excited to get started working with this beautiful peg loom from Ragged Life Designs! I have SOOOO much roving, fleeces, and yarn, so I am hoping this will help me whittle away at it! 🐑❤️🧶 #Weaving #PegLoomWeaving

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

All checked in - loom is set up - and I'm headed over to volunteer at the Info Desk! And check out the adorable 3D printed sley hook! 🧶❤️🧶❤️🧶 #Weaving #ANWG2025

Took 3 tries, but I finally got my warp threaded correctly for the Southern Counterpanes workshop I'm taking at ANWG in a couple of weeks! 🎉🎉🎉 #SouthernCounterpane #LouetJane #MarjorieJaneLoom #ANWG2025 #Weaving

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. 😢🐕🌈❤️

I am SO excited that ANWG is next month! I am taking the workshop & seminar on Southern Counterpanes, taught by Pat Donald! She helped me identify the structures my great-grandma used in hers from the 1870s! So I am preparing to warp my #LouetJane for the round-robin workshop! 🤍🧶🤍 #Weaving #MJLoom

I have no idea why someone felt the need to correct my spelling. I tried to respond to them, but they contacted me through my website, and their email address doesn't accept replies. 😒 Anyway, just saying that I do, indeed, know how to spell. #DeborahAnneLoom
