ABB Quilts: March 2009
http://abbquilts.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Meand quilting, books, fabric, Virginia Tech, weaving. Sunday, March 29, 2009. Orchid show, Part 2. Mae had had enough after about 2 seconds. This fountain area was about 3/4 of the way through the gardens. I asked her to sit for a minute while I took a picture of her. This is the 4th attempt to get her to smile. You know it's a losing battle when she mutters, "I'm not frowning. Can't we just get out of here already? I deleted the others. You don't need to see what I deal with every day.

ABB Quilts: November 2011
http://abbquilts.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Meand quilting, books, fabric, Virginia Tech, weaving. Friday, November 18, 2011. Getting set up for weaving. here is the swift on the left and the ball winder to the right. Mom and Janie, I fixed the swift's missing top by using one of those wide rubber bands from broccoli along with cotton string. Seems to be working so far! The swift takes a skein of yarn and unwinds it as the ball winder re-winds the yarn into a ball (also called a cake). For Mom and Dad (and Janie), this is the wedge trick I read ab...

http://abbquilts.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Meand quilting, books, fabric, Virginia Tech, weaving. Thursday, December 15, 2011. I've learned how to use two shuttles/colors and to treadle two patterns (tabby with the left foot and the twill with the right). It's fun to watch the curves appear. Notice my perfect tension. and I forgot to use warping sticks or paper or anything. Hope the weaving police don't show up. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Meand quilting, books, fabric, Virginia Tech, weaving. Saturday, October 16, 2010. Then, as per instructions, he drilled holes all over the tree sections. And pounded in the mushroom plugs. They were about an inch long and less than a half inch thick. I helped. The kit came with hard wax that I melted a little at a time and then "painted" on over the plug to create a seal. I guess this is to keep the moisture in and the bugs out. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Teri's Eye See You.

Meand quilting, books, fabric, Virginia Tech, weaving. Tuesday, November 11, 2008. Home and then gone again. Will came home from college for a long weekend. He went to the Virginia Tech game last Thursday night, left right afterward, and walked in the door here at 6 am. Ah, to be young again and think nothing of staying up all night. We had a great time with him, but it seems like Monday rolled around awfully quickly. I said, "Yeah, he's on the cover of every issue! Links to this post. Links to this post.
