Tuesday was a day of getting stuff done. I finished the gang of dolls in the morning while listening to the Meidas Touch podcast
And got them off in the mail, waiting at the PO along with half the town, who probably thought as I did, that there wouldn't be anyone at the Post office today.
Then I got to the Tuesday Knitting Group library, and saw our display in action
And on to the group, with a new member whose project was challenging
While others of us went on with other works in progress
Chat ranged over teaching Latin and voice, following jobs, moving, widowhood, cat names, furniture-eating dogs, Iron Man triathlons, aging parents, Thanksgiving, animal rescue, Dorset buttons and more.
Then home to an early Misfits delivery because of the holiday
Beautiful rainbow chard, special cheese to add to the Thanksgiving cheese and crackers, white chocolate from Tony, because I love it, though it can't be chocolate, nevermind what it is. Pumpkin which I never normally buy canned, but it was a freebie so fine.
Then Textiles and Tea with an artist who founded the Chicago Weaving School and is also a freeform cloth artist.
Seen here in the weaving classroom.
She's a very intuitive worker, who says if you know the answer already, there's no point in making the work. It's about discovery, not about confirmation. I totally subscribe to this vision, so I was glad to see her in the world of weaving, usually such a plan-and-execute world.
See some of her work here
Happy day everyone, full one for me, maybe Wednesday a little less so..
