| twining on the patio July 2020 |
I haven't done a lot of twining lately, so last week I tried to work at least two afternoons on the patio. One of the days, I called a friend to come over and visit while I worked. We chatted (social distanced) for a couple of hours, and I made progress on the rug.

| seven inches to twine July 2020 |
Saturday, the temperatures were in the mid-70s, and it was very pleasant to sit on the patio and work on the rug for an hour or two. I now have only seven inches remaining to twine before the rug can come off of the frame.
Going to be a very pretty rug. Goggle would not let me comment. dorthac at aoldotcom
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty and colorful! Where do you plan to use it?
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful!! and sitting outside in the 70's pure heaven.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!! Crafting on the patio - with company. That was a very good idea!
ReplyDeleteYou've made great progress.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine temps in the 70s. We're broiling over here in the east. LOL
Glad you got some friend time. I'm hoping to get a bit of that NEXT weekend.
That's looking great! It's been far too hot here to be outside much. And we really need rain!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! How I envy you your mild temps. It's been brutal here. I've had summer long headache from all this heat and humidity. A breath of fresh air would be most welcome.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool. I would love to see it when you finish. :)
ReplyDeleteWe enjoy being outside too when the weather allows. Your project is coming along!! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, how wonderful this looks!! I like the colors you've chosen and the friend's visit just filled it with joy!
ReplyDeleteHow do you make your twining frame? How wide do you ut your strips>
ReplyDeleteI couldn't find your reply--I found great instrutions on how to make a frame on YouTube. I like your rug dimensions better, strips were torn at 1 1/2 inches. You do amazing work and so many projects! I make quilts for my family and QOV, I'm busy making masks and scrub hats, my granddaughter is a respiratoy therapist working with Covid patients. Her hospital is a hot spot now. I admire your creative ability and that you donate so many wonderful items from quilts to sweaters. God Bless you!
