This Post Has No Title

I have some time before going off to finish my book, "Slumdog Millionaire". This book holds true that the book is better than the movie. I liked the movie but the book is better, it isn't even the same as the movie...wish they could have done it the book way!
I haven't had the time to be a good little blogger, I don't know what I've been doing, life has just been that way lately.

Still weaving and must make time to trot around the blog world again and see what folks are doing. A weaver blogger told me this some time back and I never got around to doing my part to keep the blogger vibes going:

Thanks for blogging about your creative journey! I put an award for you in my blog, so hopefully some of my blog friends will become your blog friends!

I'm back Sue, thanks, I'll try to carry thru!

I decided that the yellow/red towels really are ok, once I washed them the nubbies plumped up and made a nice fat absorbent towel, same with the red and white. But, oh, mama, I fell hard for the green color, next is a blue color!

Practicing The Calm


I keep trying to slow down...everything; time, my thoughts, life, growing up, growing old...all those things and more. I think I've said this before and I'll probably say it again!

Anyway, my weaving has sure slowed down, I was away for a week so I just started again, I learned how to measure out my warp on the warping board. I really tried to just lay the yarn onto the warping board but I kept getting it quite snug, my teacher said that it is what beginners do; so I guess that's ok for now. (My first project was all ready for me, being given to me by a kind benefactor!)
So the dishtowels begin!!! I purchased the 8/2 cotton; white and several other colors. The first 2 dishtowels are for one of my sisters who requested purple in her dishtowels (I have added a small yellow stripe too). My friend sjs has requested some dishtowels too since I am going to be making so many, thank goodness she isn't picky about the color and is willing to be surprised since I may just go color crazy! Me, who wears black in August...
