This is the crib sheet that Vega's quilt is designed to match. it will also be the border fabric. I already cut it apart. Tomorrow I will cut it and attach so that I can write The Lorax on it. Yep I decided it will be The Lorax.
Sort of what it will look like. But first with some birds appliqued and also with a story embroidered around it. Oh and the border will go on all 4 sides.
New round of yoyos, I have been a bit lax on sharing of late.
This is the basket they are going in once I have photoed them. Yes it is Longenberger. I think it was called the snapdragon basket, it was one of my "I'm so glad you're not a mom Mother's Day presents" from the days before I wanted to be a mom.
Oh and that is my weaving basket behind it. I keep the cone of mohair being used on the weft of this piece. Also my cone holder, which is just a piece of iron twisted for me by a blacksmith I knew once, and the handle for the back bar, oh and the extra heddles that I have.
That is how full the basket is so far. I don't know how full it will be by the end of the year...we'll see.
I wove for a bit today....I do love that, there is nothing that fills my well quite like how that does. I needed to be reminded of that recently. I may not do much at a time, but it adds up quicker then I ever imagined. The day I cut this piece off will be huge!!
Have a great Friday, big changes are coming! All for the better!
