September 2006

Blackout

 
I do still spin - though you haven't been able to tell it from my blog lately.  This is the second time I've taken these photos.  For some unknown reason, I wiped my memory card on my camera yesterday.  I thought it was a problem with my computer not being able to see my camera any longer - and boy was I pissed!  I showed my computer - completely wiped the hard drive and reloaded the software 'cause I thought it was an update of iphoto that was messing with my camera.  Ha - jokes on me.  I must have accidently wiped the card clean.  Piss.  Oh well - I didn't lose too much.  Most had already been uploaded to the old computer and the rest of the photos had been uploaded to the blog.  I think they're still there.  If not I'll have to recreate those also.  Hubs says I'm just a little too dangerous for my own good. 

Currently sitting in the dark 'cause a storm rolled through about 45 minutes ago and knocked out the power while dropping a boatload of rain.  The power company says it should be back up in about an hour - wanna bet?

New warp board - 8' board from Lowe's.  Works like a charm for shawls!

Blue Heron mercerized cotton in mossy place and cotton & rayon seed in rainforest.  First of two made in this colorway - second was my fav.  This one used the 10epi reed and the other the 12.5epi reed and was given to my Mom.

Blue Heron rayon chenille warp canyon shadows.  Remind me to never. again. warp. with. chenille.  Argh - what a bear.  I may never finish this piece - it's taking forever to clear the shed.
