teaching

Looking forward to teaching again.  I teach quilting every Monday nite at a church w/ seniors and will be teaching art quilts to a group in a itty bitty town in north texas.  At least there won't be any kids.

teachers

taking my second art class at MSU.  Drawing 1. We have a portrait and still life to do on Thurs.  It will be interesting to see you can draw and can't.  20   -  19 year olds in class.  My favorite was...  I just graduated H.S.  and my other teacher would give an assignment but he let me do it my own way or something different.....Will you do that?     Our sketch books are 18 x 24.  egads!!!!!

Can't believe I made this

design boards

if you haven't made a design board yet :  or you don't have room:  Here is a lightweight one to dry..  Go to local hardware store and ask "the guy" to cut a 6' piece of 1/2 in insulation into 3rds.   When hanging blocks use a reg pin.  No need to use table cloth or batting.  Mine is 4 years old and still going strong.  I just lean the 2 or 3 pieces up against the back wall in front of sewing machine.  I hide in closet when not using.

to blog or not to blog

I don't know what I do all day but I don't have time to spit!!!   Where does it go?  Part of the problem is I am reading.  What a concept to read!!!  Working I read but not I read.  I'm reading these foreign authors.  I get them through Inter-library loan.  What a great service.  But!  I have to return them on time because I am a frequent flyer of the service.  Right now I am on my 2nd book by Amos Oz.  Foreign authors never have Hollywood characters or Disney endings.  Photos belong to another place I spend all my evenings
