Sharing these sweet little change purses I made from my weaving. The cloth was woven on my Saori Piccolo loom, with a black wool warp and an assortment of various yarns from my stash for the weft. The cloth has fusible interfacing for stability and the purse is lined with colorful cotton fabric.

This tapestry was inspired by a photo of the Smoky Mountains and is 11″ by 27″ The warp is cotton seine twine, and the weft is all fine and medium weight wool yarn from Weavers Bazaar. It is mounted on a wood slat with a strip of velcro, so it will “float” on the wall.
