.........and so to 2014

As usual I've been slow to blog in recent months & so I find myself in February 2014!!

I'm just testing posting from my iPad in preparation for my upcoming travels - planning is underway for my 2014 travels commencing in May...... First stop Madrid but ........more to come on this subject later!

Just testing posting photos from the iPad..........

.....playing with some Margo Selby fabric to make a small patchwork cushion.

....my Saori weaving in progress, taken at a Kaz Madigan workshop I attended last November.

....more of my creation.....a bit of trial & error learning new techniques!

.....cute little dress with matching pants I made for my 3 month old great niece.

 

Until the next post, K.................

 

Back to the Blog!

It's been quite a while since my last post but I've been busy enjoying life & all it's lovely activities! Some travel is in the planning - New Zealand later this year, then Europe, the UK & New York in 2014 but for now a quick update of recently completed patchwork & weaving projects......................

This quilt is called Berkley Square. I made it as a gift for my sister in law. It was machine pieced using bright & cheerful Brandon Mably fabrics.

Passed some time dabbling with an inkle loom, making a carry strap for my camera. Even spent time weaving in my sunny courtyard with the little garden nome for company!

This table runner was woven on my Saori loom. I'm delighted with it & must say it looks delicious on my dining table!

My latest weaving project. The piece was woven on my saori loom & removed from the loom yesterday! I love the different textures & designs that can be achieved using a variety of yarns.

The loom is bare again so must be off to prepare the warp for the next project, this time I'm hoping to weave some cloth that can be made into a vest / jacket. So stay posted.

Nameste, K ........
