WARPING ANEW

 I ordered a new warping board-it is smaller and lighter -which is a benefit for storage and lifting!  I am going to make a table runner.  Only 300 more wraps to go!!!  I'm going to be trying some overshot weaving and hope to be weaving by next week.  

MY WORK IS PLAY

The birdbath is set up again on its platform and the water is flowing!  Bill even weed whacked around the area 

so that it is very neat and functioning again!  

It doesn't take long to overheat outdoors so I was glad to head back inside and decided to face up to a much dreaded chore....winding a new warp.  I mess up the counting and get bored wrapping all of those threads so I can only work for half an hour at a time but I am 3/4 of the way done now 

and can't believe I was such a baby! I should've remembered my Mother's advice to give even 10 minutes a day to a distasteful task and it will get done!

There are so many threads for this pair of dish towels

 but I am getting excited for the next step which is one step closer to the weaving!  

(the next steps are winding, threading and sleying THEN weaving! lol)

When I couldn't stand any longer, I did a bit of this!  

Aren't they cute?!
