I finally have the log cabin project off the loom! :-D

I didn't do so well on the edges, but I'm hoping that will look better once it's been off the loom a bit and after I wash it.  It's pretty crinkly right now since it's been on the loom for almost 3 years!!  I'm thinking of doing a twisted fringe; that's all that is left to do with this unless I decide to edge it, and that's unlikely.  It will probably be a dust 'cover' for either a loom or a wheel.


And I've done a bit of spinning, because I bought a Russian lace spindle from The Spanish Peacock.  It's cocobolo, and a really pretty piece of wood:

I don't know what this white fiber is - it was a sample from another spindle I bought awhile back, but it's nice to spin - drafts easily and is quite springy.

And I'm trying cotton spinning again, only this time on a bead spindle:

The spindle itself is pretty wobbly, as the bead's hole isn't quite in the center, but the spinning seems to be easier with this type of spindle.  Though it goes sloooowly.  Not sure I'll ever get through that 8 or so ounces of cotton roving I bought in a destash last Fall!  But maybe all of a sudden it will start going faster. :-D

And for my sister:

This is the look you get when you have a ball in your hand. :-D


And to my anonymous commenter - yes, a lot of my photos are fuzzy to varying degrees.  I don't have steady hands, and my dogs don't sit still while I'm trying to take their picture with a slow camera.  Luckily I'm not a professional photographer! :-D
