Scaled up weaving results

French window blind research continuing with a first sample of scaled up weave.  It’s shown her in mercerised cotton with a linen/wool mix weft.  I’m liking the movement of the weave blocks held with crammed stripes to hold them in place.  Threading inconsistencies are easier to see with the stripes.
