Using a quilting foot will really help with it staying inline and not getting squeezed out as you sew.

Elmer’s! What a concept!

Thank you for this video! It was very very helpful. I did try you method you have in the video and it WORKS!!! My hand woven towels don’t stress me out anymore. Love all your videos. Thank you again!

Great video. So enjoyed seeing it done as opposed to just reading. Elmers glue a super idea.

Loved your precision, thanks!

When starting sewing at the edge, put a small ruler under the back of the presser foot to level it. Then it will start sewing easily without pushing or distortion. ❤

Great video, so many good tips and advice. Thank you!

Great demonstration!

Each tip well explained and just in time for my towel project this week.

Very helpful. This demo was super clear. Also helpful info about shuttles. Thank you for ALL of this information.

I adore watching your lessons. I learn something new every time. Thanks

Thanks for showing how you end your doubled weft! That’s what I was looking for when I found this video. Like ply spit without the ply. One thing you’ll never have to worry about is anything working loose with that much shrinkage! 🤣

I also learn something new everytime I watch you. And I love your voice too

Great video. Learned quite a bit. Thanks.

A walking foot, used for sewing quilts , will keep those stripes from getting pushed out of line.

Very helpful and informative video. I’ve just begun weaving and have yet to try cotton. I knew they shrank, but 25% shrinkage surprised me.

So, beautiful you really know what you are doing thank you.

Gracias muy bien explicado

Perhaps for a smaller rigid heddle loom, one could weave two narrower towels and stitch together for one wider towel. I enjoyed watching how you finished off your towel.

Good lesson

GREAT VIDEO! I never knew the Woolery posted videos! Love this idea of the glue!!! Also the way to end the double weft…. Why didn’t I think of that?!?!? But, I do know you said another video could show how to fix floats. I’m wondering how you do that here since the glue would not allow you to pull the warp out. Help please?

Could you use a walking foot to help with movement?

I really like the Bluegrass Mills 6/2 cotton and have woven many towels with it and it does shrink quite a bit. I was surprised at how much yours shrunk - 4.5" on the width and 5" on the length. I wonder how that compares with other cotton or cottolin yarns? Looks like I have an experiment to conduct!

First of all thank you. i appreciate your videos. I always learn things from you. I also have a question, if you make multiple towels, do you put glue on each towel?

I have heard that cotton can shrink 10% to 15% during the first ten washing and dryings.

You may have mentioned this in a different video, but did you use Elmer’s glue on both edges of each of your towels?

Yes! We do the glue trick on the other side of the towel before we cut it off the loom too!
