Lets weave

It was a beautiful sunny morning this morning, the opposite to yesterday. I got my walk in early while it lasted, lucky I did, the rain came this afternoon. It stopped raining later so I've been another walk tonight. Got to keep the miles topped up. 
This is the state of play with the little weaving I am doing. I have added some needle felting on the blue sky. Not sure if that was a good idea or not, but it's there now, and it will have a tree to cover some of it. 
Fishcake asked if I could do a weaving tutorial. There are so many out there already on yoootooob, plenty to choose from, there doesn't seem much point in me re inventing the wheel. Try this one to get you started. No words, just watch.



It's like musical chairs in here, as soon as I get up this little madam is quick to take my place. It's a good job the two chairs I use the most have wheels on them.

A few more fireworks tonight, I expect there will be more tomorrow night.

  4. Lol,she is just like my Lily.If I nip in the kitchen or just go to the toilet,she is on my seat fast asleep when I get back!It gets as though I cant even read a free magazine because one of them wanting to sit on it.The other night,when me and my grandaughter were playing scrabble,Tiggy insisted he wanted to sit on the scrabble board.We hadnt got a clue what words we placed down on it!.So we put that away and tried playing cards instead...with the same result,lol.Your weaving is coming on well Ilona and I bet the end result will be lovely,as your work always is!.It was a rainy start here today,but seems to be clearing up a bit...I think..so we are just going to the local village,to see the garden center there.Dont think I will buy anything cause theres nothing I need,but its still nice to have a look around this time of the year.xx

  5. You have such an artistic talent! You just get an idea and *bam* you do it and it looks so interesting. I really enjoy how you see something and then figure it out your own way and I am so impressed! Well done!

He hasnt been eating much and has to have physio to help him get his mobility back. Hopefully he is over the worst and may be coming home sometime next week. Love your weaving so lovely and not forgetting your sweet lady cat Mayze. My two are tucked up on their beds after a tasty supper. Should be nicer tomorrow after all the rain we have had recently.
