Happy to be Here!

My purpose for this blog is to share some thoughts and ideas about
weaving, some of the things that I have learned, and to show off some of my finished pieces.

I AM happy to be here and wouldn't be if it weren't for the hard work of my 2 children who did everything to set up the blog and are working hard to get the website done. All that from a long distance, too, since my daughter is in Utah, my son is in Kansas and we are in Montana. Not an easy task to coordinate. So a huge thank you to them. I love you both!

We just moved to Montana in June and are still surprised by the great beauty here and the ever changing moods of the sky and mountains. I know already that these colors and scenes are influencing my work. Lately, I have mostly focused on weaving tapestries and dye and spin all the yarn for them, but I often weave blankets and other things for fun and to try out different weaving ideas that I have. I love ethnic and historic textiles. I have been weaving since I was young and haven't gotten tired of it yet. And funny, I still mostly do plain weave!

At some point the website will be finished and I will also try to post photos on the blog to show what I've been working on. Welcome to my WeaveWorld.
