Woven Shibori Up-date



I have been working on this woven shibori project for a while. I hope to make a curtain for my small bathroom window. 

I have three yards woven. I couldn't wait to see what I had, so I cut this off. I should have another 3 or 4 yards I can weave. 

Now I have started to pull the resist threads. Yikes! Now tell me again why I wove 3 yards???  Oh yeah, I need that much yardage to make a curtain for that window. 

My warp and weft is 8/2 cotton sett at 20 epi. I have the loom threaded to a Bronson Lace and played around with the tie-up to get long floats. My base cloth is plain weave.
