My Journey

Name: Linda
Location: Australia

I'm relatively new to the country and I'm enjoying the experience. In April 2006, after 23 years of marriage, my husband decided he could do better than me and left. After living on our farm for more than two years I have grown to love the quiet and the connection with the land and animals. I don't feel as though I belong in the city any more, so I'm going to stay here and make a life for myself. This journal is about what I have to face as a single woman looking after a 55 acre farm with a handful of animals. Plus, of course, all the good things that happen too.

Waffle Weave Tea Towels
I have started my next weaving project and have decided upon tea towels in a waffle weave. The pattern I am adapting is very multi-coloured, so I toned it down a bit and used roughly the same colour count to tie in with the waffle weave pattern. Although, I think the pattern is more clearly seen on the reverse of my weaving. So next tea towel I think I'll do the pattern in reverse. I'll include a photo of the next tea towel when I'm up to it to show the difference.
