Project finished finally. 4 weeks of solid work and frustration mounted in working out fairly well.
I sometime doubt why i am actually doing weave as a specialism when i am threading up & setting it all up, but at the end of the day once i start weaving and things start working out i really enjoy what i am doing and all the passion which i had in the beginning comes flooding back to me.
I just wish in so many ways that setting up a loom could be 10 times easier. Every step of the process has to be SO accurate or you could completely throw yourself off into the biggest mess, which i already witnessed at the beginning of this project. Week 1 = massive melt down. 800 threads. one massive tangled knot. frustration lead to not being able to cope.
One thing you have to remember when doing this is to be calm, collective and there is always a way of fixing something, even its a long way of fixing it, something will help you to push through you moment of downfall.
I also want to apologise to all my friends for being in the biggest stress for about 2 weeks while setting this all up. I just hated everything i was doing and couldn't see any possible outcome of what i was going to create. I need have a little bit more faith in myself and not freak out at the first hurdle.
