First- HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER!<\/p>\n

Now, to business- I continue to be in the mood for cutting out so I am piling up the zip-lock bags.<\/p>\n

This basket holds 12 bags of fox. I pulled out my bin of orange wool and basically cut up anything that was big enough. Then, when I was done and had moved on the the next thing, I found one more sweater. It’s in the fox basket, waiting for me to get back to these.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And dogs. I never got to fully play with the pattern when I first drew it up<\/a>. Now I’ve done some modifications (different varieties) and am in the midst of cutting out a bunch. That meant pulling out all the stripes-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And all the wool that seemed like “dog”.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I also cut out some more Lumberjacks and also some new design wool men- I will keep it a surprise. You know, in case it turns out to be a big flop. I am having a great time, pulling out all the bins and enjoying all the fabrics. Of course my studio looks like a bomb went off but I will get it all back in place soon enough.<\/p>\n

I got my box of samples back from that book project<\/a> I contributed to. I’d sent these off a year ago! I’m happy to have them home again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Let me see. What else do I have to report? I will be in Brooklyn for the Renegade Craft Fair<\/a> on June 23 and 24. It is in a new venue- Williamsburg Waterfront. I am so excited to be participating again this year!<\/p>\n

I applied to be in the San Francisco Renegade<\/a> show in July. I’ve got my fingers crossed. Flying across country to do a show is a bit scary but I’d love to try!<\/p>\n

I’ve been kept away from my studio for more time than I’d like by too much computer-based business but it always needs to be done. The Land of Nod work was keeping me busy last week and is moving forward. So much going on!<\/p>\n

Last thing- I have decided that I’d like to try hiring someone to help with my sewing. I’m thinking that I’d start with just 1\/2 day per week and see how it goes. If you are local to me and are interested, shoot me an email- mimik@pobox.com. I’ll be putting signs up at some local fabric stores. Not sure how else to find the right person. The latest Craftypod<\/a> interview with Lorna’s Laces<\/a> gave me the last little push that I needed (I’d been thinking about it all week!) to explore hiring someone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
