http://homesteadweaver.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Tuesday, December 15, 2009. Driving home from a meeting this afternoon, I saw a flock of wild turkeys along side the road. They are a lot like families at Christmastime . huddled together, pecking through the dried grass for seeds. I love seeing them in the sunlight when their feathers glisten, but it was cloudy today. I read Hilary's post. A couple days ago about photographing the red-tailed hawk and was drawn to the symbolism. Monday, December 7, 2009. There are a f...

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Too busy to blog? It's been months, faithful followers, and we apologize. Did I say "we"? I (Chris) now have a RETIRED husband and he has jumped in to help with the studio. I'm thrilled. He's also agreed (since he was a newspaper editor in his pre-retirement life) to help with this blog so you'll be hearing from the Homesteadweavers more often. The forecast is calling for cool afternoons and only a small chance of rain (YEAH! We're one of 12 ...

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Monday, May 31, 2010. More gardening and meditating. When we bought this house in 1999, the landscaping was pretty minimal, although there was a nice picket fence along the front. Here's what it looks like now. What do you think? Saturday, May 29, 2010. I've been working in the dirt. Nightly. Daily. Whenever the heat was bearable. The gate is a wrought iron creation of cattails and iris from an Indiana blacksmith, Dean Howard. Friday, May 28, 2010. And Ingrid's visit ...

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Wednesday, January 27, 2010. The snow was coming down in big puffy flakes when I spotted this gray squirrel hunting for missed acorns. He'd walk a bit, dig, walk some more . all the while dragging his tail behind him. It just kept collecting snow on top of it. When he got some distance from the oak trees, he flicked the snow off his tail and scampered away. Tuesday, January 19, 2010. There is a dark blue ground weft that is constant throughout the rug and the cotton s...

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View: April 2009

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Monday, April 13, 2009. Ready for spring . They are so cheerful and forgiving of the weather. They pop their heads up around St. Patrick's Day in our area. Over the years of buying bulbs, I have acquired about 20 different ones with different blooming cycles (ok, so I'm not a botanist! And they make me smile for about a month while they take their turns showing off. You might ask . Lled in to help and it took 3 days (times 3 people) to complete the job.

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View: February 2010
http://homesteadweaver.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Friday, February 19, 2010. Enough of the snow already! This is my meditation circle. It's an area in the woods across from the house and studio that has paths through the trees and a few places to sit and think. There has been plenty of time for that this winter, but it's not been happening out in the snow. Dear Saint Francis looks like he has his work cut out for him. Everyone has probably seen their fill of snow pictures this winter. So that's it from me.

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Monday, February 2, 2009. At how much time I seem to spend online. Writing emails, checking out websites and blogs, visiting Facebook (when did I start doing that? And writing in this blog . all seems to take hours out of the day. Filling orders from the emails at least gets me out of the house and into the studio for awhile. Snow's melting here but groundhog saw his shadow. But, I saw robins yesterday . so spring can't be too far off. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Homesteadweaver - Looms with a View. Tuesday, November 10, 2009. Shorter days, but more to do. I thought when we turned the clocks back last week that I would have some more time to get caught up on stuff . didn't happen. About mid-October, I got a call from a reporter for the local PBS station . would I like to be on TV, talking about my Recycled Rugs? That was a hard one, seriously. It meant extra effort to make the studio look nice (thanks, Stephanie! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Promote Your Page Too.

I took a walk into the woods and he was on the ground . back for the camera and here are some pictures of this beautiful creature . Stormy is showing Pike, the studio cat, what you can do with WINGS! Three new rug weavers.
