Double Jacquard

Double Jacquard, Double Jacquard, Double Jacquard!!

Mary Lue's Cranberry Harmony and Yellow Symphony


Mary Lue's Coffee and Light Ecru Harmony

Thanks to a lot of reading, videos, help from friends, and a super tutorial by Cathie Sanders of Northtipton, my John 3:16 design has been realized without floats! Patience has its own reward. Now, for the journey of deciding just the right piece for this design.  I would like to use a lower tension as well, just to create a firmer fabric for a jacket pattern.

Update

It seems like it has been eons since I've posted...well, it has been! LOL!!

What a difference a day makes, months make, a year makes. I've added machines, learned many new techniques, joined more groups, left some -- life evolves and change is good.
