time lapse

paint drying, sourcing new wefts for that color area, and this month is on it's way out. hopefully the weave  will be finished over the weekend.  i need to face the other loom and it's warp,which still needs debbuging.fearing that part tremendously bcse i have a hunch that it is going to need rewarping. nothing i haven't previously done.however, this warp is on a sectional beam and that means extra problems.plus it is extra fine silk meaning possible tangles. although i seem to live there i need a break.

consequently we'll join the ganbaru club💪as nothing has ever been written about the faint of heart. on the contrary there are volumes about the reckless.  õ / õ to be continued.

don't know if i already mentioned that i went back to japanese lessons. this has to do with the above remark as i have entered language awareness syndome. again.
