Boundary pushers are very welcomed here. No conventional weaver tropes! Going a little off-piste with my weft ends here. Is there a right way? 🙂 What do you do with them?

So many of you have shared that your pieces seem boring after you’ve spent hours with your heart and soul weaving them.
I have some ideas. Tip ONE to stop you from repeating making projects you don’t really love.
