365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.

Warp Speed!
Day 196: I'm getting close to the end of my table-runner project, and the question of "What's next?" is hop-scotching through my brain. I've had several ideas, but haven't settled on one yet. I'm thinking ahead with an eye to putting something in the Washington State Fair this year (definitely a table runner in the Weaving category, and certainly a piece of bobbin lace), but of course this depends on being able to complete it in time to submit. As much as I'd like to get started on a piece of summer-and-winter or overshot, both are time-consuming weaves and probably better left for the long hours of winter. Ah, so many colours and so little time! What will it be?
