I've got a song stuck in my head! Thank goodness it is a good song. Well it's a mahvelous night for a Moondance.....am getting some inspiration from that piece.
Am working away on projects, and at work. Trying to figure out how to quit my day job. I am certain there is a way. So so close...
Hello! It was a wacky crazy horrific week at work! There wasn't too much time to work on projects. I am working on one new baby blanket and of course my Weaving II project. Here is the inspiration picture along with the work in progress. A sunny spot full of the yarn I am using. Light blues through black with a tiny touch of yellow as an accent color. The warp is a light grey tencel. The weft is a mix of yarns. I have yarn from Habu there as well. Thank you for the nice comments on Hubby's garden. It has come a long way since we moved in. Here is a close up of the Dogwood flowers on the west side of the house. Enjoy the great weather! Hugs, Marie
I hope you all had a better Norteastern than we did!! We got an indoor pool in our basement. Not fun at all. I only lost a couple of books and a bag of left over yarn I had left on the floor. The Loom was on my cutting table still in it's bag! Thank goodness. A few area rugs met with an untimely end. Well at least there was no yucky sludge or mud to clean up! So I have to do a final project for my Weaving II class. I have to create two related pieces. They don't necessarily have to be twill or even traditonal weaving materials. I can use whatever I like. This is the first time I have to do an Artsy type project since junior high...don't you dare ask when that was!! I ain't talking! I am thinking either 8x8 or 10 x 10. The first piece I am thinking of doing is inspired by my favorite picture of the marina. The day I took that picture there was a nasty storm coming in. The water and sky was all blues, tealy, blacks, silvers and whites...The water looked so still like a m...
Hi All! It has been another crazy busy week here at El Ranchito. I was given an order for a special crib blanket. The following is what I came up with. I think it looks real pretty. I've selected a super soft, easy care yarn from the U.K. in a cream color. I am going to put a blue ribbon around the eyelet round there. It is taking me forever to get this one done. I think it is worth the time. Here is a close up of the corner Of course before any invoicing is done Lola does her quality control check! Once this project is complete it is time for me to finish my weaving project. I've get to free the Loom!! I hope you all have a great week! Hugs, Marie
