My project in Hand-Weaving Techniques: Design Textile Accessories course

It was such a pleasure to weave this handwoven cushion for the final project of my course!

I have been weaving cushions for many years on my floor and table looms, but have only been weaving cushions on the frame loom in this course for about 6 months! This is largely due to the design of The Oxford Frame Loom, which I launched a little under a year ago, but enabled me to adapt my more intricate designs to one that could be woven on a frame loom.

For this project I am also sharing my design process, including the first cushion I wove, which became a draft that I altered for the final project. So for those of you taking this course, you can see that your initial sketch doesn't always end up as your final project!

Happy weaving!
