[Nfb-krafters-korner] triangle looming patterns

Tue Oct 29 02:53:33 UTC 2013

Hey Debbie, 
What do these patterns look like? I can guess what the feather-fan pattern looks like but how about the pearl heart? Sounds very interesting and I think I would be up for a class on either  one of these projects.

I have the fan & feather pattern going on the 90 peg at present time. It is coming out real pretty. I also have a pearl heart towel pattern which I adapted to do on the 120 peg loom for a small blanket. fyi, both these looms are fairly large & are not a loom you want to travel with. I would willing to teach either one or both as a e-mail class.
