The Weekend Edition - New beginnings!

Hi Weavers! This week I did a major 3 day clean up and reorganisation of my studio. Everything was moved, vacuumed, and cleaned! It was a lot of work but now my studio feels so clean and spacious. It's amazing what an impact clutter can have on mental clarity! I took some footage along the way to share recent thoughts and happenings, I hope you enjoy watching: **************************************************** New Store! Yes, I have a brand new store for my digital download designs. As most of you know, I've been on Etsy for over 15 years but I wanted a little shop of my own as well. You will still find all of my patterns on Etsy for now, but I'm hoping that my new store will be a busy one. There may also be plans for me to offer some physical products in my store in the near future too, but I'm not spilling the beans on that just yet! 😉 As with most things "new", there will likely be some bugs to iron out with the store, so if you do head over and make a purchase please feel free to let me know your feedback on what worked well and what could be improved on. Kelly Casanova Designs Store... ***************************************************** Closed captions The Introduction to Floor Loom Weaving class has been updated to include closed captions. If any class you are enrolled in at the Online Weaving School does not currently have captions and you would prefer to see them, please email me to let me know 😊 **************************************************** Extra Learning Resources Independent warping issues... Tips for weaving with finer yarns... *************************************************
******************************************* Remember to follow me on Instagram! and tag me if you complete any of my classes or patterns - I will share them in my stories 😉 I also share content on my Instagram and in my stories that you won't see elsewhere.
Have a happy weekend! Until next time... Happy Weaving! *This newsletter may contain affiliate links. For further information, please view my disclosure policy. |

Hi Weavers! I ran some polls during the week on my Youtube community page.
