more stripes

we’ve been enjoying an extended period of lovely Fall weather

but suddenly

the leaves have all come tumbling down

raking is a full-time job

 colours are spectacular

birds are having a feeding frenzy

progress in the studio is slow

more weft stripes, in handspun silk and natural dyes

this time silk scarves

difficult to photograph with the muted light

and somehow the stripes look like the are wriggling away

oops! a little ball of silk was trapped on the front beam under the weaving

autumn joy from nature’s paint brush
