Alexandra Zonis - Bead Artist - Loom?
I came across this website -
http://www.mostlyglass.com/Artists/Z...s_mainpage.htm showing beaded carpets. It is mindblowing. So many beads and so much work has gone into these carpets. The kilim saddle bag is especially lovely. What I would like to know is does anyone recognise the loom she uses. It is this one - http://www.mostlyglass.com/Artists/Z...ad_weaving.htm It looks incredibly professional. I'm going to stick to my little wooden one :-) but I have never seen anything like it. I only know of the Mirrix that comes that big. Does anyone recognise the loom? TIA Rachel |

I emailed the artist and received a nice reply. The loom she uses is a
Mirrix loom - the Rolls Royce of looms. I want one so much (a big one) but not until I get a Lowery frame for my needlework! Rachel "Rachel Grier" wrote in message ...

I hankered after a mirrix loom a few years ago. I shown it to my DH who
thought it over priced. He got me a large wooden one from somewhere in Cornwall I believe. I have got a Lowery needle work frame. It was a leaving gift from the girls in the library when I retired. Dh made me a table to clamp in it, with a well inside to hold my beads when I did beadwork or to hold my bobbin lace pillow. I have a bead desk now.

Shirley, I have been meaning to ask you about bobbin lace. Where on
earth can i find the bobbins?!?! I got this great book on all kinds of needlework, and bobbin lace was in there and I have fallen in love. But all the fabric/craft store near me don't have any of the bobbins. Mind giving me a hint as to where to get them? I do have a knitting/crocheting/yarn store near me (although gosh is it expensive) and they may have it. I haven't thought to ask until just now. I think I can make the pillow thingie, but those bobbins are just too small to make I think.

You can get them from
http://www.lacis.com The plain wooden ones are quite cheap and you will have to put beads on them to weight them down.
