I wrote a post about a week ago, and it is lost! That just shows how little I know about what I’m doing here. Oh well.<\/p>\nI have come down with a cold on these first few days of March. Perhaps that has contributed to my funk lately. In spite of my lethargy and less than optimistic attitude, I have been weaving. Sometimes I avoid the things I love doing when I’m down, and sometimes I find quite a lot of solace there, even when I cannot seem to cheer up. I am weaving what feels like acres of solid color plain weave on my historical tapestry. I should post photos soon, although who wants to see an acre of solid color plain weave?<\/p>\n
I make very small progress on my fabric projects: runners in Monk’s belt on a borrowed Norwood loom, a small hanging of autumn red maple leaves in Theo Moorman technique on my Baby Wolf, and those same red\/tan, 8 harness, log cabin dishtowels on the AVL. I could be weaving a silk scarf, an 8 harness network twill on my small Purrington table loom if I would just tie on and get going.<\/p>\n
A few more birds are joining the chorus these days as the light stays longer. On a couple of days I’ve noticed that spring-like bouyancy in the air, a combination of humidity and warmth, at least in the sun if not in shade. Hopefully soon we’ll be in the midst of what e. e. cummings called “mudluscious,” a time I always find ridiculously hopeful!<\/p>\n
This photo shows a detail of a scarf designed and woven byBonnie Innouye. I took the photo during a class with her last fall. This is the type of thing I have on my Purrington table loom. I should get back to it….<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
