Back at last

Have been busy and away so haven't blogged for a month.  But I haven't stopped weaving.  Have finished the last two stoles and made two more.  This first one is done in the circular and just slips over the head and sits on the shoulder.  It and the next 2 stoles will go into Koru, a shop in downtown Auckland.
The second has duck feathers and white cook feathers.  They flick up and so give a luxurious feel to it.  However because they have such a big flick I needed to put feathers in every row.

This third one is made with pheasant feathers and a catch instead of a string 

I made this bag for Whiri Aroha with fluffy Pheasant feathers and a woven base.
This stole was made with the leftovers from the bag whenu.  It has pretty black and white feathers from a rooster pelt. It will go to Whiri Aroha too, for exhibitions.
Something odd - a neckpiece with flicking duck feathers.  Not sure what to do with this.
