'We' are 7/8 of the way through sewing up the slits - not that we have been working at it constantly since the last post! Friday and Saturday were spent finishing the books for Fun-a-Day. We hung the exhibition on Saturday evening, and the official 'launch' / drinks party is tomorrow at 5pm (WDeanies have assessments until then - oh the joy of NOT being assessed anymore, well, not in that way anyway) with take down on Saturday morning (=end of term). I will try to remember to take my camera with me tomorrow....
What is surprising is the amount of my hair that is woven into the piece (that sounds vaguely creepy, but you know what I mean, I hope). The intention is to take it to WD tomorrow and block it before and after the drinks party, leaving it to dry until Saturday, then bring it home to tie the warp ends, add the velcro etc. Should keep me out of mischief.
I have postponed warping the Ashford until this is done, on the basis that delayed gratification is good for one.
she seems very particular about the piecing, getting it "just right".
