Exercise???
Mood:  on fire

Topic: Fiber

Still no pictures. That would require me moving. Seriously. I'm exhausted and sore. Making yardage is PHYSICAL activity, and is requiring me to use muscles that don't see all that much activity (especially in the back!). And besides, I'm afraid that if I bring my camera into the house, I'll forget it here and won't be able to record the rest of what is happening today up at the FAC.

BUT, Cathy from IBIWISI Alpacas almost completed her vest yesterday afternoon. A stunning red, with needlefelting. She had some finish handsewing to do, but it was wearable! I have pictures of it on my camera in the car.

The rest of us worked on completing yardage. Since we are all making coats, we have another day of class today to start cutting and sewing.

I am THRILLED with my yardage. The colors coming out are reminding me of Monet's Waterlilies paintings. And because I'm making a duster coat, it is long enough to take advantage of the gradual colors on it. But because it has these gradual colors, I won't be doing much embellishing. I'm going to be looking for small seed beads to sew onto it.

Pictures will follow after the close of class tonight.

I cannot wait to see the pictures. And then get to handle the texture, if it ever gets that cool again.

I look forward to seeing your pictures! The description of your fabric sounds beautiful. And, I hope we all get to see it at the SPA in February! (p.s. I hear that margaritas are good for back pain. :)

Helen, I've tried sending you the Ringsurf ring code, but AOL keeps returning my mail - both from my comcast.net address and from Ringsurf.com. Can you email me, and send me another address I can use for the Ringsurf code?
