Fireflies in June


Oh the other night was pure MAGIC.  The field behind our house was sparkling with fireflies. And it only got better when Albert pulled out the camera and we began to experiment with shutter speed. 


We began photographing around 9pm when the last moments of sun were 
disappearing behind the trees. 



The tracks leading up to our house.





Fireflies moving directly in front of the lens. 


An awesome abstract painting Albert took after I'd gone back inside. 

Oh! More than a dozen new infinity scarves were finished today.. look for them online soon!

This photo kind of reminds me of a painting (note to self: pin this for potential future quilt). Those are 38 new woven cuffs cut off the loom ready to be sewn! 


Each rectangle of stripe-y cheer will be transformed into a cuff which will be sewn onto infinity scarves.  I spent the week on my big loom using up warp ends from dozens of woven scarves that would have normally been tossed in the trash. What a treat to cut them off and have a look at them all- really a test in color inspiration and endurance to come up with this many combinations 
in such a short time. I hope to have a bunch
 of new infinity scarves in the shop soon!


Here's what else I did last week.. tubing on the Brandywine River with a bunch of pals. We now have several towers of tubes on our patio for the summer.


Proud to say I did not drown in the raging waters- but I did get a whole lot wetter than I originally thought (note to self: after a night of heavy rainfall, wait a few days for the river to return to its normally foot high waters).
