The last full piece on the warp is based on a picture of a juniper bough, taken last summer (or maybe the summer before) at the cabin in Montana.
There weren't yarn leftovers with enough yardage for the wefts in the right yellow-green or a warm tan, so I sampled a combination of dull green and dark brown wefts, but didn't like the result. Back into the stash again, where I found a green with a blue cast and a red-brown, almost burgundy. This I like much better because the red and green complements really pop. The image is a bit dark, but I'm thinking of using it for a cushion cover for the living room sofa, and I don't want it too bright.
Once this is done, there are a few inches of warp left for samples, then it's time to cut off and beam the next warp.
