Overshot Coverlets
The last coverlet is done – Constance cut the warps…
.

…sat around in the lovely unrolled coverlet sections…

…before cutting them apart…

…hemming them…
.

…and snuggling under them for a nice cosy sleep! We got them done just in time, as there is a winter storm watch in the Quimper Hitty neighbourhood, and snow is beginning to fall!

They look lovely and cosy Kjerstin. Well done Constance! I hope the storm isn’t too bad for you. I gather there is more cold weather forecast here but not snow as far as I can see. Stay safe and warm.
The storm wasn’t too bad for us – We didn’t lose our power, I did get to try out the new red snow shovel, and the Hittys had a little frolic! All good things!
A little bit of snow is nice as long as it behaves itself, doesn’t cause other problems and knows when it is time to go!
They are just wonderful! Well done you (and Constance!) We have a cold front blowing in today here in the Pittsburgh area… I pulled on a sweater this morning and really needed a hat for my morning walk.
Hat weather here too – and mitten and scarf…I was well bundled up for the shovelling as the Hittys were for their frolic!
Neat, tidy and warm…trusting the winter storm was not/is not too major.
We escaped the brunt of the storm, luckily for us. It is really icy out there this evening, which I avoided by staying home!
looks like you and Constance had a lovely time choosing colours and weaving many bright coverlets. It’s a good time to cuddle up and stay warm.
It was a very good day to do that (after I shovelled the drive and walk way!). We really enjoyed the wee coverlet project, and have a mind to make a few more! They are so cheerful in their bright colours.
The Quimper HIttys have such a wonderful selection of woven coverlets! Seeing Constance hard at work was inspirational! And seeing the girls all snug under their new cover…priceless!!
I have a good helper in Constance – she is very steady and committed to helping me out up until the very last step! and snuggling under a pretty new blanket – one of the joys of life!
Constance was working hard and now the Hittys have nice coverlets!
The Hittys have been wanting these overshot Coverlets for a long time! We were so happy when our friend with the loom had some spare time and space in her schedule – we took full advantage!
