It took less than an hour to weave 4 coasters to complete the guild challenge (complementary colors, twill and tabby). However, it took more than half a day to wind the warp and dress the loom! Then after cutting them off the loom, an extra hour to stitch the hems.

I stitched the first hem on the loom, and then cut the cloth off and stitched the remaining edges before removing the spacing cardboard. Seemed to work OK.

The challenge due date is not until the October meeting, but it was better to get these done so I can focus on the llama spinning which so far, is going well.
