Painted Warp

OK, I have gotten distracted from overshot to my painted warps. I still hope to weave the name drafted overshot some time in the future. But onward and upward.....

 
As you can see, I have found the reed I need (12 dent) and have added some black rayon to get the width I want. I worked up a single two tie draft I think will help show off the painted warp. This is the warp I painted at Katie's house.

 
I am weaving with black bamboo as pattern weft and polyester black sewing thread as tabby.
