March is fading fast and the official spring start will be
here soon
and not soon enough for most of us.
A serious case of spring fever is
brewing in this country.
Time is marching along at a fast clip and I am having a hard
time keeping up.
Thanks to all for your kind comments on “Night Wing Rider”.
I appreciate each and every comment and visits
to my blog!
Night Wing was
labor intensive and took up a lot of my time with many starts and stops
but I
am very pleased with how he turned out.
With each soft sculpture I do, I learn
and progress that much farther
to creating future pieces I have visions and
sketches for.
I have so many birds and butterfly’s I want to make
that it is
hard to pick the next one to work on.
But the next sculpture is going to have to wait a while
because
for now I am back to weaving.
I need to do production for the next
several weeks
on rugs, dishtowels and some table runners to catch up.
Three looms need to be cleared of projects that have stayed
on for far too long
and then I will get all of them warped for different
projects
so they can be finished one by one.
My days of 25 to 30 yards per week
production is over
so I only put twelve yards of warp on at a time.
That is enough
production for me on any given projects.
I am getting older and there is only
one of me for 6 working looms!

There is a little green being woven in the studio today. |
With all that needs to be done it sounds like
I have my marching orders for the coming weeks
so I had
better get busy!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
You certainly are one busy girl with 6 looms on the go but great you have lots of orders!
ReplyDeleteHope you get time for more soft sculptures.
Have a great day

Wow, you sure have been productive. That a lot of weaving... Your soft sculptures are brilliant.Life is so short, you might as well do what yo enjoy the most.

Beautiful work! I have several hand loomed/woven rugs and they have held up way beyond any store bought ones...I love them.
