ABQ Here I Am!
The flight was a little bit fraught as the plane in Seattle had some a/c issues and we were 30 minutes late leaving. With just 45 minutes layover in Salt Lake, I wasn’t at all confident I’d make my connection. Or if I did, my bag with all the teaching samples etc., in it. Kudos…

Devil and the Details
Details, details, details~! Weaving is all about details. Teaching weaving is also all about details. If you miss out just one little detail, you’ll probably have a devil of a time getting it sorted out…. I spent much of last night and about 3 hours today getting ready for the two workshops in Albuquerque. (I…

Heading North
I meant to take a photo of my area set up, but since Teresa and I are sharing the space it looked kind of – well – empty. :} Perhaps I’ll remember to take a pic when Doug and I come back at the end. The rain cleared off yesterday so we moved in with…

Smoke Free
Well, sort of…..to the north of Kelowna sits a huge bank of smoke. I’m really hoping it stays there. I will be home and back in the thick of it (literally!) soon enough. 🙁 The wildfire conditions worsen here with the smoke plume now literally across the continent and beginning to hover over New England…

Greying Weavers, Young Weavers

Moon Dance, Anyone?
I got the wardrobe….. This morning, rather early (for me and Doug, that is) I went to the hospital Cast Room and got the staples removed from the incisions, an x-ray taken to check on healing and then got outfitted with a ‘moon boot’. Didn’t ask how much the boot cost – didn’t want to…

Knitting Samples
I don’t consider myself a spinner, even though I got sucked into the wonderful world of weaving via the orifice of a spinning wheel. :} (See my earliest posts for the story.) I only ever learned how to spin woollen, not worsted, and I’ve not spun nearly enough to become proficient at it or taken…
