… as far as blogging is concerned.  Part of the problem was that most of what I have been making lately has been for swaps on Swap-bot and I’ve been reluctant to post pictures or details here in case my partners saw them and it spoiled the surprise.  I’ve decided to put a spoiler warning on my Swap-bot profile and leave it up to my partners to decide whether or not to look.  I’m still leaving my Flickr pictures as private until I know the items have been received, though.  So, I’ll try to get some pictures of some of my latest projects uploaded soon.

In the meantime, kitty eye-candy …

… rather than fibre content …

Since my last entry, we’ve both been illl for a few weeks, and then there was a lot of things we needed to catch up, so I’m only just back to doing fibre stuff. Just to prove I haven’t stopped blogging completely, I decided to put up some cat pictures. Even though they love comfort, cats do like to make themselves uncomfortable at times:

… it is so long since I last did an entry …

I know I said this was to be a fibre blog, and I have been doing fibre stuff (honestly!), but life has been too chaotic lately for me to give this blog any priority (sick cat, then sick husband, now sick mother), so here is a picture of Tigs just to prove he isn’t so sick that he can’t relax and chill out. (Click for a bigger version, as usual.)

When we left my mother after visiting for the second time today to cook her some supper, we should have hurried home to cook our own meal, but we decided we needed a half hour stroll along the towpath of the River Thames instead – good for the soul. :-) Unfortunately we didn’t have a camera with us to catch the sunset over the river, but if we go there again tomorrow we’ll try to remember it. Now I need to cook that dinner …

Sometimes Tigs likes to hang around the table loom …. usually under it, but occasionally he gets higher ambitions.

A few minutes later, he was back in his usual position …

The carders are on top of the cloth to stop him lying there, BTW
