Down to Business or Down to the Wire
I found the posts to mount my raddle on the AVL, the warp is prepared but will I be able to thread and weave in time for Xmas day??? I have been working my real job a little more the last week or so and lost some time.

Holiday Towels
I have started the cotton warp for some holiday towels. They need to be quick to make, elegant and yet easy!
So I am using 16/2 cotton and 16/2 linen with 5/2 pearl cotton for segments of color.

New Toys
I have used Fiberworks PCW for years. I use it to run my designs on my AVL compudobby. I use it to create designs for all my looms.
Today I was able to load the MAC version and it is fabulous! Still playing around a little as some things obviously work a little differently but as with most things MAC, it is a pleasure!

Need a Quick Gift
Hmmm, went downstairs to take a peek at my yarn stash. Thinking of doing a summer and winter "Nordic" design kitchen towels in cotton and linen. It would be a 16 shaft weave with the pattern in a cotton pearl. Let's see how far that idea gets!
FIBERWORKS PCW now has a mac version (unfortunately no loom driver yet) but as my mac OS has been upgraded I can no longer access my virtual pc with fiber works. Maybe the MAC upgrade of Fiberworks could be a gift from Santa! Now there's an idea.
