Canadian rug twiner, knitter and piano player. 🇨🇦
Finished my most complex twined piece. The technique is called false tapestry, involving hand-sewing of wefts at colour changes. Took two months.

Page 673 of President Obama’s A Promised Land. “Trump had shifted gears, noting that we’d recently held a state dinner under a tent…he’d be willing to build a “beautiful ballroom” on White House grounds-an offer that was politely declined”.

Is it too much to ask people to refrain from using the K word? On behalf of all Karens, I respectfully request that you think of another, cleverer way to describe a thoroughly obnoxious person. Thank you.

Twining buddy. Appropriate, but don’t know if this type weaves.

Start of a “lego block” rug. Red and orange to come.

This was a challenging rug to complete. There are lots of ends to work in on the reverse.

Progress on the next rug.

The three-weft rug is done. It’s OK, but not great.

At the Maundy Thursday service I attended last evening, a prayer was said for people of Ukraine, Sudan, Gaza, Yemen, Congo, Haiti and the United States. Not since 9-11 have we prayed for the US.
