Still got snow!

However, it is nice and warm indoors and just looking out at it. LOL
The horses cant even step outside their stables today as so much ice, and I have just taken the dogs for a walk and in the wind it is perishing cold and no thaw yet.
Back to make some soup and weave.

Here are a couple of pics of the hand towels I have been making for Jill. They are of cottolin and 8/2 cotton and using a 16 shaft pattern I found in Handwoven for linen towels , same threading and different treadlings for some nice patterns. These are blue and yellow as requested but think I may try some with white linen weft as well. Will see how they are when all finished and wet finished.

What a surprise!

Well there was a surprise in store when we awoke this morning! I know snow had been forecast but we usually only get a sprinkling here, not today. LOL

Here are a few pics before I go off to my loom

First four chairs finished!

Fun was to be had recovering the chair seats, as the next ones needed all the webbing replacing, but, thanks to ebay I found some at a good price and now have managed to finish the job. Even though I say so myself, I think they look good and am pleased with the end product.

There are still 6 more chairs to do, which are slightly different but they need more repairs so will have to wait until the weather is better and they can be seen to outside.
