A New Life...

A new day and a new start for an old blog.   Textile Tourist's early years will be "under construction" for a little while as I massage all the old posts into this bloggersphere.

You may notice that I've ended up with 2 of each post, some published and some not! That was after weeks of trying to import the old files and getting nothing. If you want to have a bash at importing, then try this advice from Classical Bookworm. Even us non-geeks are left with some hope!

This rather valiant effort should make life a little easier for all the fleet, particularly the Web Controller. Meanwhile, enjoy this for some inspiration!

Starting Over

And over.  And over.  At least we're progressing with site work, although a little more time is necessary to prep for our (combined) 15 minutes of fame in this blogosphere.  Past boatless bits & bobs, including interesting textile encounters could be found on Typepad - no longer.  So have fun until the stage lights are lit again....

(Ed. Both TT's are now combined into just ONE manageable journal of textiles & inspirations. Dec 2012)

Safe Harbour

I've only just noticed the little green parrot is visiting too..  Can you see him?
Textile Tourist is moving with the rest of the fleet to make life easier at home and on board our floating home.  We'll be back every now & again to mow lawns, weed garden beds and check the mail.  Otherwise, enjoy further travel and textile finds (anything post 2010) on a new blog site.  Don't rush though as a bit of house & boat maintenance is happening there too.  And we've just had a few unexpected guests drop in, just on dinner time!
