Woven Hexie Fabric Weaving Tutorial! Ornament Along Week 10

What a quick and fun triaxial weave project for this week's ornament. The contrast and visual impact of the woven hexie is real. I notice them right away when looking at my tree!

I made mine in Shimmer On Fabrics by Jennifer Sampou for Robert Kaufman, and some silver Manchester Metallic from Robert Kaufman.

I'm excited I had a chance to use the WEFTY on an ornament. This would be a great introductory project for any of you who haven't tried weaving yet! It's addictive, and lots easier thanks to the WEFTY Needle. I love this photo Mathew took!
