Above you see one of the baby gamps wrapping itself around a Portuguese Sweet Bread that was getting ready to
Speaking of food, you can catch a glimpse of one of the desserts I made in the picture above. Claudia likes to berate her kitchen skills, but this was really quite a hit. I knew all about Claudia's (in)famous copulating bunny linzertorte, but finally got a taste in the parking lot of WEBS (I missed it at the potluck picnic on the grounds of the MA Sheep & Wool last May). I thought I had some bunny, or at least Easter egg, cookie cutters but this is all I could come up with.
Speaking of the gamp, this fabric has a beautiful hand sett at 24 epi and woven in plain weave. I think it would be wonderful for a summer top or a unconstructed jacket. I'm heading down now to finish up the sleying for twill. I completely forgot that I wanted to do an inch or two with black and white wefts, but I'll do that when start in on the twills.
OOooh, Portuguese sweet bread! I haven't made that in ages... Mmm.... Yours looks great!
