Doing Things

I have been busy lately

Perhaps not busy enough 

to have neglected the blog

as woefully as I have

But it seems once you slack off 

it is really quite difficult to regain 

your momentum

Front

I did make a dress though

as a commission

This is in a silk knit

completely hand stitched

and dyed

Back

I made it for a lovely local woman

to wear as a bridesmaid at

a Viking wedding

and here is the lovely Laura

looking fabulous

Love those horns

And now I am preparing 

to whizz off to Melbourne

and then to the Grampians

where I will be teaching

for details 

go here

Maybe you want to be a last minute

attendee

or might be intrigued enough

to invite me your way

Now back to trying to make 

my mountain of stuff 

fit in the pitiful luggage allowance

Mind you anymore and it would 

very difficult to haul around

I might be taking a leaf from

India Flint 

(there;s a blog post about this in there 

somewhere but darned if I could find it)

and only take a few clothes 

so I can fit in many workshop bits

we shall see

If only I had a bag

Like Mary Poppins

x te

PS India has very kindly added her packing list to the comments.
