New pictures from old trips
I've been neglecting this blog. Sorry about that. I'm going to school three days a week (taking advanced web design classes), working part time (demonstrating espresso machines) and going to job search support groups. Enough of that! Here are some pictures from a trip I took to Buenos Aires a little over a year ago. I am ready to put on my traveling shoes again. The struggle to pay the mortgage and pay bills on my unemployment check every month is getting old. I'm ready to start a new chapter.

Felt Inspiration - Fashioning Felt
I'm so sad I missed this exhibit at the Cooper-Hewitt. It showcased the amazing work being made by artists using felt. One of my favorite installations is by Janice Arnold of who makes felt right here in Washington in Centralia. I want to meet her and study felt-making. Check out this video of the process: http://blog.cooperhewitt.org/2009/04/13/video-making-of-the-palace-yurt

Knitting Season Begins
With the cooler weather and changing leaves I've started to cozy up inside with my balls of yarn and knitting needles. Here's my first hat of the season. It's made from a variety of yarns I had in the scrap basket. I'm pleased with the colors and the way it turned out.
