Oh you are so lucky to have taken a workshop with Michael Rohde. I love your mini tapestry with both the wedge weave and traditional tapestry elements. Does Michael make the looms that you purchased? I weave mini tapestries on a Mirrix. Do you think the four selvedge technique can be done on that? Thank you!
