Wet wet wet again,

so a day for weaving indoors.
The curtain fabric is going well and I remembered to take a couple of pics of work in progress.
The warp and weft are 20/2 silk and the pattern is a 24 shaft flowered satin pattern from the handweaving.net site.

Summer at last

August has at last seen some summery days, albeit not the sort of temperatures that we are used to. Life has been busy with visitors as Tamsin and Mike and his parents came here for a while, luckily whilst the weather was good.

All meals were eaten alfresco which was great , and makes life easy for the cook!



One evening we had a trip to St Emilion and a lovely meal there. It really is such a lovely place which I never tire of visiting.


And, at long last I have got the loom warped and have started weaving the fabric for my new dining room curtains. Will take a pic later to post to blog.


Off to make some chutney now, with surplas tomatoes from the veggie patch!
