    Reference Well, if you look at this picture it looks like I really haven’t done anything on the weaving front. But, that is not the case. After mending the broken warp thread and giving the warp a nice, deep conditioning, there was just no getting around it: my main problem was that the spacing of…

    Reference First, thank you all for your thoughts, concern, and prayers for my father. He says he is feeling fine, and he is looking much better (though just getting out of the hospital gown does wonders for that. Why do they pick a color for those things that washes out every skin color? Talk about…

    Reference Well, I had a different title and everything for this post back on Monday morning; but just as I was publishing the last entry, I got a phone call from my mother. Now, my mother never calls me unless something is up. She, in particular, doesn’t call me in the morning just to chat. It…

    Reference Well, I am getting back to weaving, but by route of my spinning wheel. No, I am not working on the rug yet. Instead, I am working on an idea that came to me a little while ago. I am hoping working on this idea will help me get my weaving mojo back so…

    Or Nuno Reference Last weekend, I went to the Warped Weavers Guild meeting. I haven’t been to a meeting in a year because of the distance and scheduling conflicts. I dearly missed them, so when I was specifically invited to this meeting to celebrate my 40th with them (we will be celebrating my 40th all year!)…

    Reference First, thanks to all of those that have made donations in support of my running in the Race for the Cure. I have already had to bump up my goal because I met the first one! To kind of go with the theme of charity, here are a couple things that I have made…

    Reference I made this throw for my friend Kelly as a wedding present. She is one of them that contributed to the population explosion earlier this year. The yarn for this throw is a wool that I got at Webs. At the time, they had much more of this yarn. Also at the time, they…

    Reference This throw was made as a wedding present a few years back. Since I couldn’t really gather from the bridal registry how the couple was decorating, I left it up to them to choose the colors. They decided on these colors, as they were also expecting their first baby and wanted something for the…

    Ok, Tuesday. Reference  This entry is in honor of Opal’s favorite colors. I wove these towels a few years ago to play around with color. I feel one of my weaknesses is putting colors together. On occasion, I do a project like this to try things out and try to expand my horizons. The weave…

    Reference  Ok, so they aren’t blue, but it is beautiful to see this in the morning, with the sunlight filtering through the trees in the front yard, hitting the trees in the back yard. First, an update on one of my little rants. It seems that there is some information about this subject, or at…
