Table Ware

I’m sure everyone has those projects that they will eventually get around too. This is one of those projects; I had this really cool idea for a table runner in a rep weave. Well time and other obligations got me sidetracked and it never happened. Until now I have finally made it a point to make the table runner.

The idea was to have a main color with some stripping (Yes I know I’m on this strip kick). Not a lot of strips and more spread out, the picture should explain what I mean.

The rep weave that I’m doing doesn’t have a real thick weft. In reality the warp is 10/2 cotton. The weft is 10/2 and 5/2 cotton. This is how I get the rep effect not dramatic but it does make a nice fabric. The picture shows what I mean.

The one other reason that I wanted to make this, it’s for a special trim that I would like to use on the loose ends. I’m not going to tell you what that is yet, so you will have to wait and see when I have it all woven and the trim done.
