    There have been some lovely surprises of late.  This card with a tiny bobbin lace medallion that arrived for my birthday.  I am trying to think how to protect it and possibly incorporate it into my life.  I was thinking of maybe a key fob – one of those plastic ones that can come apart…

    Celebrating another trip round the sun by…dressing the loom again.  🙂 As I have been reflective about my weaving, I have also been reflective about my life.  Over the years I have made mistakes – and hopefully learned from them.

    2/8 above and 8/2 cotton below – two completely different quality of yarns – because all the numbers mean is how many yards per pound (approximately) each has, and say nothing about how they were prepared for and spun.  They will produce completely different qualities of fabric because they are completely different qualities of yarn.…

    I have been working on this series of table runners for a while now – with a large break in between due to my travel/teaching schedule.  I’m very happy to be making good progress on this warp, with three more waiting in the wings.
