High Fiber—At Last! Part I

Posted on November 19, 2018 at 8:30am 5 Comments 0 Favorites

Wow! What a week! I had hoped to get the loom put together, but it was too busy. I did get all the heddles loaded onto the rods in the shafts. Here it is with just two shafts loaded, and there are four, but I did finish that part. There are enough heddles (those things that look like wires hanging down in the middle) to weave something with more than 400 warp threads.…

High Fiber—Waiting for the Final Shipment

Well, the loom didn't get put together. This week got away from me, and the light in there isn't too good yet, so from late afternoon on, it's hard to work in the alcove where the loom is.

However, Billy's hat to go with his cardigan is…

I am interested in trying it again, and with embroidery. I love the look, and am getting back into simple embroidery stitching, slowly. I used to do quite a bit, long ago.

But this one is cozy and the big closet helps keep it neat. Right now I'm working on a table runner with applique so I have a mess in there. I pulled out several colors of fabric trying to decide what colors to work with. I do miss my office desk and bulletin board but I'm making due. I put stuff on my closet doors with that putty stuff. It comes off easy with no damaged. Where there's a will there's a way.

Thanks for the link to the train quilt. Looks great!

We've had a hard freeze as well. It is raining here today, which is needed.

Those poodles are so happy for their new found friend. I have to watch him when he outside this lady across busy streets has 3 running inside her fenced yard. He eyes them and they make their presence known by yapping. I grew up on farm with medium size dogs, I too have found new love for small dogs. Very friendly!
