I finished this weaving the other day. The green stripes in the bottom section are a hand dyed and hand spun wool yarn I purchased at the fiber festival a few weeks ago. The purples and creams are a hand dyed wool roving that I purchased and then hand spun with my drop spindle before weaving. Now I’m contemplating what to do next - I might cut it up and use it in several different pieces.

I finished this weaving today. I wanted to get a quick photo of it so I tried laying it on the foot stool in my living room. My faithful assistant, Ollie, believes the foot stool is his property and apparently feels he needs to investigate and approve of all items placed on it. He eventually got annoyed with me thwarting his efforts and lounged on the chair instead. Scroll to see the finished piece.

I had a lovely little trip with musical friends this weekend. We had a long drive home today so I spent a bit of time creating this digital piece. What do you think?

This series wasn’t cooperative and got tossed on a shelf last year. Now that I’m no longer as attached to the initial phases I can take bigger risks. I just covered them in molding paste and they’re so much more interesting already.
