I can't really complain about others messes if my own piles aren't in order! :-) Can't wait to see photos of the new studio! I really try to keep all my fiber piles confined to my studio.

At mine, all the tools are mine, (not that I have a lot) and I don't have a DH who can fix things or build things, but he does play golf and watch football leaving me time to weave. And he's building (paying for) a new studio for me, so soon all of MY piles of stuff will not be allowed in the house! All of the piles are mine too. Good notes on the shuttle. I've also found use for the little hole on the other end - to level the bobbin -- mine was not level and the thread won't feed smoothly if not. At least you share attributes at your house.

Good notes on the shuttle. I’ve also found use for the little hole on the other end – to level the bobbin — mine was not level and the thread won’t feed smoothly if not.

My plan, (I always have a plan swirling around in the back of my little brain) is to actually add a page to my eShop on my web site, actually two pages. One for "vintage" Daryl garments and stuff, and the other for some of the newer things, like the scarves and pieced totes. That's one of the reasons I wanted good photos. So whatever doesn't sell at the guild sale, (assuming most of it doesn't, I'm up to 50 items, but some of them are my monographs), I'll spend the next couple months adding them to the eShop. Stay tuned... Well Judy, you might be in luck. My plan, (I always have a plan swirling around in the back of my little brain) is to actually add a page to my eShop on my web site, actually two pages.

Good news about the structo loom but great news about cleaning out the closet! Some people are going to be mighty lucky at the sale. But wouldn’t I like to find a Daryl weaving at my sale?

He worked for years as a mechanic and has an amazing acumulation of tools, welders and stuff. We have a 3 car garage that no car parks in. (OK, the Harley's do). He can fix about anything with something he has stashed. Of course, I have taken over the basement with carders, pickers, dye equipment, sewing and felting equipment...you name it.
