Oooooh pretty! I got the link from the SCA cardweaving Yahoo!Group....The most tablets I've ever been able to do at once without going crazy is 50, so 118....wow!

Thank you. I have the advantage of the big loom here ( 1,5 meter long and wide).

I started it backstrap weaving - which actually was also manageable, but I found my warp was a bit uneven - so I undid it and retied the ends. Since this is an order I decided to warp it on my loom in stead, for the evenness. Another advantage is that I can get up in a hurry to reach the phone.

What are your cards made out of? and what are you going to use the final product for? I'm curious! :D
