There is lots going on around here. This morning, I packed up two orders, walked to the post office, then the bank, then the library and back home. And somehow, since I haven’t done any sewing, I feel like I haven’t gotten anything done! So, now I am writing a blog post. Last week I took a super-fast, overnight trip to Brooklyn to see the year-end show at the NYU Game Center where one son is getting his MFA. Next week, I will probably go back again for Mister Finch<\/a>‘s show<\/a>. Busy, busy!<\/p>\n

I’ve got a table full of foxes waiting for me.<\/p>\n

\"5:26:foxes\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But, I’ve gotten distracted by ornaments.<\/p>\n

\"5:26:ornaments\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When I was asked to design some ornaments for West Elm, I needed to come up with a lot of ideas and then they picked what they wanted. The thing is, I liked all of them! It has been tickling the back of my conscious brain ever since that I should move forward with these others and make patterns. I even got started a few times but ended up getting flooded with ideas and then feeling overwhelmed. This time, I said I would teach a class to make ornaments. That is the way I finish things- commit to someone else. So, moving forward! So far I have a fish, a whale, robot, and a long list, drawings, and first try prototypes of lots of other things. I will keep you informed as they move forward.<\/p>\n

What else? I am taking a class to make the Cooper bag<\/a>. I know, busman’s holiday<\/a>, but I knew I wouldn’t get to it if I didn’t schedule a time. Hopefully it will be done on Wednesday evening and then I can show you.<\/p>\n

I am going to Portland, Oregon in July (8- 13). So excited!<\/p>\n

I’m not sure if I mentioned it before, but a reminder since I’m making a list here- I am not planning on doing any shows this year. It doesn’t look like that will slow down my traveling though!<\/p>\n
