Here's our winter resident.

Well, here we are in March and I haven't put an update on here since January...., where has the time gone. Needless to say, I've done quite a bit of weaving, and my next project is based on this feathered friend that keeps peering at me from the lawn, through the window. When I make a move to photograph him he scuttles! But, I did get one or two pictures, and based my next project on him, and his friends.

This bird is making a hasty retreat after seeing my camera. |

Here is 'Flash', called because of his
white wings. His head is teal blue,
their colours are brilliant! |
I have used the colours of the pheasants in my latest project, browns, tan, white, fawn, teal blue and Lincoln green. There aren't two alike, they have caused a dilemma recently as their colours have become more vibrant and made my original warp look dull, oh well, that's a challenge to overcome.
Here is my latest warp, which has a long way to go.
I have lots of ideas for creating fabrics in wool, based on the above birds.
Come back to my page soon, for an update on the results.
