Traditional Check bedspread in cotton indigo blue and natural hand woven made in Maine USA

Image
  Denim blue and natural color cotton yarn used to create this yummy hand woven fabric for a bedspread  Traditional way to make a hand woven bedspread is to seam the two pieces together . The hand loom limits how wide you can weave a piece  My loom is 60 inches wide  So two pieces are sewn together seam is in the middle of the bedspread in the denim blue check  Looks fabulous on an antique canopy bedv Here is a close up of the seam . The whole piece came out perfectly  A talented person with lots of experience at weaving to know how to match and get the fabric to shrink at the right ratio when washed  Commissions welcomed  leck@midcoast.com

Good Food Cornbread !

Image
Eating healthy is important for the body and brain to function . Eating healthy foods and  unprocessed foods .Here I baked this morning Cornbread for breakfast that we will eat with some leftover bits of  locally grown smoked ham butt . The cornmeal is “ Abenaki Flint “ cornmeal  I don’t drink coffee any more . I drink black tea with Dried stinging nettles  I harvested and dried the nettles when visiting my son and his family while out on Orcas Island ,located in the Puget Sound north of Seattle , Washington  Stinging Nettles have a lot of good nutrients that are mild compared to some other herbs I have used.  Anyway here’s to a hearty breakfast and a Happy New Year !  Comment below I would like to hear from you .
