The skill! The urge to roll across these carpets!

Unveil the mesmerizing "Carpet Field" in Antalya, Turkey, where summer transforms wheat fields into a vibrant tapestry of handmade carpets.

As the sun blazes, hundreds of acres are adorned with carpets woven with intricate patterns and bold hues. These works of art are not mere decorations but symbols of heritage and skilled craftsmanship.

For days, the carpets bask under the sun's embrace, undergoing a remarkable metamorphosis. Harmful bacteria and insects vanish, while the colors subtly shift, blossoming into soft, pastel tones that shimmer like a desert sunrise.

What I have learned from this is the older ladies in the cross stitch groups are going to be getting a meme from me.

Everyone has their own view/way to do things and I realize this can be a hot topic for some. This will also have a follow up question.

So I remembered this little cross stitch kit I got a while ago and finished it. But now I can't decide if I like it better with the legs or without the legs. I kinda wanna make it into a pin or a patch (and I'll have to figure out how to do that) and having the legs would make it more difficult but in a way it feels incomplete without them.

Yesterday I got the big wool blankets warped up on the loom at the studio. It looks like Lisa Frank barf and I love it. It took almost the whole weekend to warp and I only got about 20 minutes of actual weaving in before I had to leave. I wanna go back!!

I finally get to post this because they got it! This was a gift for a friend who likes Columbo.

Shoutout and thanks to @kidkinobi on Pixilart for the picture of Columbo I transcribed square by square into a cross stitch pattern by eyeballing the colors. They had no socials I could tag.
