It's been a busy week at the loom and sewing machine. Wanting to try out a new pattern, the loom was warped and fabric woven. It's a summery blend of linen, tnecel, and a bit of cotton chenille. The combination of threads made a fabric that is so soft and has a beautiful drape. Here's where things went a little wonky. I intended the fabric to be a top with sleeves. I planned for that, and looked forward to wearing it. This sweet piece of cloth had a mind of it's own and insisted on becoming a vest. Sometimes it's best to listen and allow things to be what they're most comfortable being. I'm in love with this vest, and the disappointment of not having a new top has been forgotten.
