Harris Tweed...

Harris Tweed Fabrics
 
When we went through our accumulated mail yesterday, I opened a package of the most beautiful fabrics. I received a prize package (along with one I'd ordered from Joan Macleod of Harris Tweed Fabric) on the Isle of Harris in the UK.

I belong to her Harris Tweed Facebook group and won a wool assortment (second image from left) from her. Coincidentally, I had just placed an order for the fabrics on the far left. Both packages were in our delivery basket.

The third image (far right), is the light aqua Harris tweed on top of the beautiful wool I received from my girlfriend, Marrianne in New Zealand. That piece of wool is from Donegal, Ireland. I've been holding that bottom piece since I received it. I wanted to create something wonderful with it and nothing spoke to me (yet). 

I'm in love with all these pieces, and I can't wait to cut into them to create something. For now, I may just sit and admire them. Thank you, Joan for the lovely assortment. I'm very grateful.
