Before

I have made a start, the browner pieces are where I have started
removing loose bark

 I am just starting on a new driftwood piece, it occurred to me that I don't take photos of what the pieces look like before the clean up so here are a few pictures.

Some of the debris

The fibrous bits are from the layer under the bark and are quite
wet. There are odd spots of green mould.

I am weaving some of the fibrous bits on a very small loom while they are still damp, an experiment.
There after photos may not appear for some time, it will depend on weather and my available time. Both pieces will probably go in next year's West Country Quilt and Textile show at the end of August.
