I was a weaver in my previous life too. I watched a man weave fast and I decided to try that. I could make a hand towel in less than an hour, because the warp (may be 20 yards) was already on the beam and threaded. But I got a touch of carpel tunnel. I had end feed shuttles. That part of my life is long gone.
Now I play with my quilts just like that guy on Ed Sullivan with the spinning plates. I do some on this one and then I do some on that one. My sympathies to the husband of the woman (Tessagain's neighbor), who made all those plans. She would be no fun at all.
