Tweed Ecstasy

The tip of the tweed iceberg that has to be made fairly soon.

Well, you may know that I luuuurve Harris Tweed.

 I love the speckledy yarns and the beeee-oooo-teee-ful combinations of colours.

But best of all I love to choose  bits of velvet to go with those colours.

 I dyed some greys when I had my mammoth dyeing day and they are perfect to compliment these tweeds.

You can't go wrong with aqua and amber,

or amber and ochre and olive....ooohhhh loving all these colour names!

Then there's the blues ...

the royal in the middle is much richer-than-the-picher...er....Picture.

I bought this olive and royal tweed from the shed at Tarbert and as I was buying it I could just see it with olive velvet.

Yum yum yum yum yum yum..more grey and ochre....

.....some brights.....

...........some brighters........

and pinks, which don't photograph well at all and thats a shame because they are gorgeous.

65 Harris Tweed Brooches.

Only another eleventy gazillion to make!

And finally a gratuitous picture of Blodwyn who has gone home.

I have learnt from the previous post, putting a little dog on the blog gets me lots of comments.

 Thank you so much for them.

If she gets that many comments with a coat on, lets see how many she gets...

...naked.
