I have seen you say few times that "no textile ever is finished before it's been wet and dried again...
Sailcloth!
Today, a lovely green box came in the post - and inside was the sailcloth textile, fresh off the loom.
Here is a sneak peek at the cloth, in its raw state:

Though I'll finish the rest of the spinning first, I think!
