Caladium leaves - again!!

Just fancy! A caladium leaf in Mola work! Well, well, who would have thought of it!!

1. This was made out furnishing remnants our tutor had to hand. I started it at the class and finished it off last night. Sufficiently taken with it to think of applying such things to some calico and making a gilet. So, since I was acid dyeing for Michael today, I space dyed some more pieces of silk velvet in suitable colours which are two shades of green, grey and pink.

Michael has made a rather splendid arashi silk scarf which is drying at the moment - photo to follow. I have done a clamped silk square which I don't think has worked but it is waiting to be steamed and still clamped up.

Don't think there is no weaving going on but there is a limit to the enthusiastic noises I can making about threading up and sleying. I have most of the sleying finished. The new warp has now got to be tied to the ghost warp and I think that will take several days.
