Happy Towels are Done!!



The towels are still attached to the loom and my house is not long enough to stretch out the material without doubling it back!












Hemmed, pressed and folded towels














Yay! Finished my towels--turns out there was enough warp for 16 of them so it's a good thing I like 'em! Happy crayon colors! Even though I really copied the colors from napkins in the Yarn Barn catalog I am pleased with them. I don't usually do that but the colors just called to me. I needed something bright and cheerful to work on. And today is our wedding anniversary--22 years! YAY! Gary woke up this morning and said "Well, 22 years of wedded bliss!" I said, "Wedded BLISS???" He said, "Well, hmmm, we made it 22 years and alot of it was good!?" Oh yeah, gotta love him! AND he is really my rock--I think he is the nicest guy in the world...I, however, am not always so nice. Oh well, I'm working on it!

  1. Those towels are scrumptuous! They would make any kitchen look like a five-star restaurant--on the Cote D'Azur! Hmmmm, I would use them to drape across my sofa back, to behold. They are too beautiful to sully!

  9. Hi! - for some very weird reason I was not able to leave a comment on today's post about a great weekend. Happy Anniversary, and what a beautiful appy you have! I have a little quarter horse and we do just about the same kind of stuff you do. I love my dressage saddle, most comfortable saddle I've ever owned!
