Hello Everyone. I’m working on a several posts about interesting artists, glorious fabric and more. But first I have to ask you for…

4 days ago by craftsanity I’m warping up the new CraftSanity Tapestry Loom prototype with turquoise cotton. I’m so excited to test drive it that I didn’t even bother sanding it first. Lol. #craftsanitylooms #loom #weaving #tapestryloom #tapestryweaving #art #fiberart #tapestry #weave #weaving #weaver #handcrafted #handmadeinmichigan #weavingsupplies #letsweave #weaversofinstagram
3 days ago by craftsanity I’m about halfway done packing today’s orders. I really underestimated the amount of time I would spend packing and shipping products when I started my business. Lol. Raise your hand if you can relate. #craftsanitylooms #yarn #weave #tapestry #loom #weaving #weaver #pockettapestryloom #weaversofinstagram #handmadeinmichigan
2 days ago by craftsanity I’m finishing this thing in kind of a freestyle way. I hope it works. #tapestryweaving #weave #weavers #weaver #tapestry #weaving #fiberart #finishingtouches #weaversofinstagram
1 day ago by craftsanity I think I’m done with this wonky weave now. I stitched it to backing fabric and created a gallery wrap by stretching it around a wooden frame (in this case one of my potholder loom seconds). #tapestryweaving #art #fiberart #mlh #weaving #weaver #weaving #art #tapestry #dyedyarn #naturallydyedyarn
1 day ago by craftsanity Morning stitches. I’ve settled into a pattern where I embroider in the parking lot of my gym after I drop my daughter off at school. I usually have about 20 minutes to burn before my group fitness class starts. That’s enough time to chip away at stitching the samplers and prints that I carry everywhere I go. Embroidery is my mental yoga. I just love it! #craftsanitysamplers #stitch #stitching #embroidery #fiberart #handprinted #art #craftsanity #printmaker #embroider #frenchknots #stitchedprints #thread #slowstitches #cool #embroiderysampler #moreofthisplease #travelcraft )
