Thank you Linda!

I've managed to get into my blog again after too long a time! My friend Linda helped me, yet again, after I'd given up and thought I would never blog again! In the past few weeks I've attempted to sign in and been denied, but have sometimes been able to get in after trying again a few hours later. Let's hope this time it works for good.

Over the past few weeks I've been trying to get ready for two important shows. Now I've been asked to teach a class and have to have my samples ready by mid-June, so that's yet another looming deadline. Work has not been going well, and I've been doubting I would ever be ready for any of them. Well, yesterday I sat down and got a big piece of the work done for the first show. I still have a long way to go, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and that keeps me going. I can't tell you what a relief it is to actually believe that I might make it and have something ready!

Once I get these deadlines behind me, I have so many other ideas in my head! I have been taking watercolour painting classes and what to make a three-dimensional object that incorporates both fibre work and watercolour painting. I have the whole project more or less sorted out in my head, and I'm dying to get working on it. But the deadlines come first. (This really makes me think about entering shows and sales. But I have to sell stuff so I can buy more fabric. What a conundrum!)

You do such exquisite work... I can't wait for you to talk about the fish.
