After cutting off:
Three "fans" and a few dents, will probably rethread to another idea...
Loomsday is organized by Meg, and this is the first time I have participated.

Have you done other things with that fan reed? They're so expensive I've backed away. But I do have another creating idea....we'll see if it works.
I know how you feel, but it's better than to keep weaving a bad idea. (My mother hates sapling rethreading or resleying, so once a plan is on the loom, she'll just weave. Silly.) There's 364 days left in this year alone to work on a good idea. Happy New Year.
To Peg: yes, try the label "fan reed" for some of my explorations.
And to Meg: ideas are "cheap", time is not... and scissors need to be exercised so they don't forget what their purpose is!
Right you are. I have got to tell my mother that.
But you had to try it, or you wouldn't have known it wasn't a good one. Looking forward to whatever comes next...
