New Tallis.

This tallis is being created for a young man who will become a bar mitzvah soon. It is primarily a royal blue with agua edges. It has been woven, but now needs to be sewn together.

Happy New Year!

It's been a long time. I have not been updating my blog for far too long so I will put a collection of pictures and stories all into one big blog update in not any particular order.
First, It was pretty enough yesterday to take a few pictures of the front of our TO house. The plants we chose for the front desert area have gotten a lot of water this past fall. I had not really been paying attention to how fast they are growing.









Here they are before on the left and now on the right. The pictures are all of one year apart. Clearly the plant choices were really good.

Next, We chose the retirement home! Having wanted for a long time to end up living at the ocean has finally become possible. House prices have dropped and we have taken advantage of the drop to buy a condominium in the ocean area. We got our keys at the end of December. Now we need to worry about furniture and details here and there in the house.


Finally, this year I started developing patterned scarves. I produced a set just in time for the holiday period. Here are pictures of some of the scarves I have produced. I am working on producing better color choices and better pattern groupings for these scarves. I will keep this development up to date.

I am also working on the "seeing red" project for Designing Weavers. I will have to tell you more about it in the next blog update!

Have a Great New Year!! Welcome to 2011!
