I've had rather a hectic couple of weeks - hence no blog. But here we are......I have managed to snatch time to weave and now I have two looms, I can multi task!!  The smaller frame is going to be used for scarves and the larger frame for garments (at least that is the plan!) The red/pink weave shown here is the first part of the next jacket.....and the blue is going to be a scarf.  Now the weather has warmed up - it works really well having my smaller loom down the garden in my art hut.  This afternoon I had an idyllic hour - sitting in my little hut, with my music playing...happily weaving.  I love summer!

Its been rather a hectic week with a lot going on, so I thought I'd share some of the happenings with you!  First of all we had another creative fibres workshop and here you can see some of the enthusiastic students being creative.  We had such a great time, and have been lucky with the weather considering our very dubious summer.  Then the local Embroiderers Guild have put on an exhibition.  There is a variety of extremely good work...impossible to show everything.  Last but by no means least, I have continued to spin and weave......the latest coat is progressing slowly.......

I thought I would add some happy home photos today!!  I love my little house and can't believe we've been here over three years....how time flies.  I've also given my little art hut a makeover, so its feeling very spruced up....  its amazing what can be done in a small space! This week has been busy but I have managed to get some creative time...art journalling and  weaving.   This is the beginnings of a new jacket (already been spoken for!) and I am using my new larger loom.  Today I have been spinning at the Smallholders Show here in Sussex - and, although I wasn't selling, there was a lot of interest in the woven jacket that I was wearing....maybe I should keep it on all the time and be a walking advertisement!
