Best laid plans.....

Since getting back from the coast I have been swamped with activities that don't include spending time in the studio until today. Today I finished up embroidering some more towels and got them listed in my etsy shop.  The chicken towels sell quickly - folks love chickens. I decided to stitch up some cows because I think they're cute - hope others think so too - I've still got some cute sheep in the shop. Also stitched a couple of fancier dainty heart towels.

I had hoped to get a painted warp on the loom but ran out of time - the phone rang off the hook all day, had some nice visits but ended up running out of hours in the studio. I did figure out the twill structure I'll be using so I'm ready to get that warp on.......maybe time on Sunday.........there's another huge Ashland Bay order of  roving that arrived today, needs weighing into bags, labeling, putting into inventory and in my other etsy shop.........might have to leave that until next week...........

Hopes for a wet winter have gone down the tubes for the time being - very little rain and snow. Local ski resort closed again, never opened last year (first time in 50 years). But we do have fog, bone chilling damp frozen fog......on the upside we don't have the artic air much of the rest of the country is dealing with........
