>> Just wanted to share two things this morning with you.
>> First, I found a HOME for my treasure, my Macomber Loom. It is the
>> cadillac
>> of weaving looms, and mine was a large one with a 48 inch weaving space,
>> and
>> 6 harneses. I had to find a new home for it after losing my sight because
>> I
>> needed my weaving room for my tech stuff and made my weaving studio into
>> my
>> office and where I run everything from.
>>
>> I wanted to find the perfect home for my loom - and I believe I did.  I
>> have
>> gifted it to the Harmony Museum in Harmony, PA. They have the Weaver's
>> House
>> on the museum grounds there and the weavers there are so thrilled to get
>> this loom. It is far beyond anything they have been using there - and 
>> they
>> said they would be making it the centerpiece of their weaving program. I
>> am
>> thankful that my treasured loom has gone into the museum program so that
>> it
>> can be used and that others can learn to weave with it, too. Next week, I
>> am
>> doing a Christmas Market at the museum,. so I hope to go visit my loom 
>> and
>> see her in her new home.
