A pile of thread

The beginnings of a new warp.  I promise it will turn into something good, even if I did max out my heddles and had to order some more in a weaving emergency haste.  I've never made a project this big before, only 1,500 threads to thread...  So far 900 down, 600 to go.

Morels

Nothing makes a girl like me happier then finding her first morels.  These mushrooms are finicky, I tell ya, and I spent a lot of time wandering about the woods saying. "This is a perfect morel spot, if I were a morel I would definitely grow here!" and "Honey look I found one...wait never mind just a walnut." Stupid walnuts.  I am proud to say I spotted my first morels this year, not just once but 3 times and they were all the more tasty for it.  Now a little break until the Chantarelles start popping.
