Summer Weekend, New Projects on the Horizon

I am finally in a forward moving motivated place. The work of other fiber artists is so renewing to me. I get ideas and feel inspired just by seeing their creations and reading what they have to say.

June Garlic Harvest and of course flowers...

Well, I guess I should say something, but pictures do say it all sometimes, don't they? It is summer, things are growing, things are already changing. The pool on the deck is full as is life. I am going to go float, what about you?

Ghost Ranch Show Pictures...

At Ghost Ranch Museum near Abiqui, New Mexico I have four of the rugs I have woven hanging in a show with the other members of Art Through The Loom Guild of which I am a member. My friend Michelle was kind enough to shoot some pictures of them hanging there since the show will be down by the time I get there next month. What a thrill for me to see my work hanging in Georgia O'Keefe's Ghost Ranch Museum. The talent of the other weavers far surpasses mine and I am honored to be in their guild.

Daylilies and Inspiration

Well, I was going to try to keep it to fiber, but life is so beautiful around here in my gardens that I just have to post a few more pictures of these striking lilies...Shot of red lily just beginning to open about 7:30 AM and then fully opened by 1PM and then the rosy ones and the yellows are so yellow and buttery...

Finally Finished

Didn't know if I would get this summer shawl done in time for summer. here it is, with flower of course!

Hot Fun in the Summertime

Hot weather is here. It must be time to weave wool rugs and knit wool things...Hah! I bet you thought winter was the best time...Here is a look at my first daylily of the year bursting forth just this morning and...here is a look at my latest project. This rug is going to be my first all wool (warp and weft) rug of the summer. I have two projects planned in this size. Both rugs will be

36 x 60.

I can't stop...

these irises have probably had about all the picture taking they can handle for one season. On another note...the loom is warped with wool and a new rug has begun.
