my sister's finished tea towels!

My friend, Grace, who is learning to weave came over the other day to put a tencel warp on my little Minerva loom. While I was giving her the odd bit of advice and help, I had ample time to weave away at the tea towels. And now they are all done!


What I love about tea towels is that one warp will make so many different options. Every time I start with a colour sequence, I think I like it best. And then I do another one.....

Dishes anyone?

my sister's tea towels

I have a dear sister, who although she lives many miles away from me, has always been supportive of all my homemaking endeavors. In March, when she was down for a visit, she made it known that she really, really liked my handwoven tea towels. So because Miriam and Ryan have a Mexican themed/coloured kitchen, I thought these colourful towels would be an apt 'thank-you'.
 I can't wait to get them off the loom, hemmed and washed!

 The warp is all ready to go..........

 Great colours for drying dishes, don't you think?

Evidence that I really did the weaving!

My family and friends have been after me to get going on a blog. Are they getting tired of hearing about fleece, spinning, and weaving? Or just getting wearied by the puns that seem to come so naturally? For instance, the other day it was so beautiful....I was just dyeing!

So what do you think I should make????
