Springtime playtime

David enjoyed some water play today after our bike ride across town to play at the park.  He loves playing with water!
 




We're about T-minus 3 weeks from moving day!  We have buyers line up for our house here in Arizona and we've picked out a house to buy in Colorado Springs.  We are VERY VERY VERY excited to be together as a family again!  In fact, this will be the very first time we will be together as a family of 3, since Brian started commuting when I was still pregnant with David.

The house we will be moving to will have 4 bedrooms, so I actually get my very own loom room!  I'm so excited!  I haven't done much weaving or much of anything crafty because all my energy has been used up with packing and Brian's commute.  I'm looking forward to having creative energy again!

Catsup and mustard, and nothing having to do with food

I can't believe January is almost over, and I never even shared my Christmas towels I made for family!  "Where is 2016 going?" I'm already asking myself! Here are the Christmas towels that I promised to show you so long ago!  These were so much fun to make and didn't take as much thought to do as you would fear! I didn't follow any particular pattern. When I sat down to thread my loom, I did more of a profile draft style threading but I didn't write it down first I just do it from my head. Same thing for treadling- I didn't have that written down first I just followed a profile-like draft from my head. So it was all somewhat of a surprise to me as I went! The towels I made were from 12/2 cotton.  I warped 6 yards, and the epi was 24. Made 8 towels total. Just a little reminder... When threading for summer and winter…. block 1 = 1 3 2 3 block 2 = 1 4 2 4 block 3 = 1 5 2 5 block 4 = 1 6 2 6 block 5 = 1 7 2 7 block 6 = 1 8 2 8 David is, of course, grow...

Today's color is... BLUE! Look at all those blues!  I also finished crocheting another kitty... one in BLUE and one in green!     Now we have a family of 4 kitties! They really do multiply fast! Wait a minute... one of these things is not quite like the other... Mr. Gnome, how did you get there?

All threaded

It's 100% done, but riddled with mistakes.  I realized only when I was done threading the constant mistake I kept making.  However, I'm all the way through now and it's only a sample mainly to test color, so I'm really not worrying about them yet.  If I want to make it into a towel, I can either start completely over or fix them and then tie onto the warp.  Chances are I will pretty much always choose staring over from scratch. David's eyes look just like the eyes on his toy!  haha
