Day 67: Down 100 times, up 101 times, I hope

Summary of the last few months:  my job ends, Mark's job ends, life turns upside down

Result: creativity tanks.

After months of dithering around, I managed to hold a full day workshop with 7 kids on Friday.  I organized a day full of wax based projects; batik, candlemaking, wax resist paintings.  It felt awesome to finally being doing SOMETHING.  So, why blog about this now?  Other than feeling awesome?



2 days without any weight on the foot.  6-8 weeks recovery.  Bad sprain.  And guess what?  You're going to enjoy the boredom with me!  So far?  I've knit part of a scarf, and made 8 little tam brooches for Mom and the Warblers.  They are quite cute, actually.  I was wondering what they might look like if I made them half that size...



I just noticed that the tassels are too big for the hats.  Boy, am I glad I published this picture... More blogs to follow, I hope.
