Full Harvest Moon


The goldenrod is ready and calling me. I picked a lot, some for weaving and some for dyeing.


First I added a row of it to my weaving ( is it my weaving or Mother Natures, she seems to be weaving on it more than I am, the vines are weaving in and out, more everyday).



A row of goldenrod, then wool strip, a row of ornamental grass and another wool strip.




My thought was when I started this earth weaving that the dye plants would gradually dye the wool strip. Well, it finally happened with the cosmos flowers. After weaving them we had a hard rain storm. That did the trick the wool is now starting to absorb the cosmos dye.



Last night was the Full Harvest Super Moon, I could not miss taking pictures of it.

It was so beautiful.

The clouds just add to it's beauty and

mystery.

I tried to stay awake to get a good photo of it over the loom, but I didn't make it long enough. The last photo at 10:00 shows it peaking through the tree.
