Coin purse version two, Arched Cables in Deborah Norville's Serenity Garden, in Grass.
I say farewell to the choir seniors of BHS Class of 2015. Tonight I rocked out to some of the best performances these STUDENTS have ever done. I'm in awe of the talent that I'm surrounded with everyday. I am very sad to let some of these voices go, but we know there is something in the water here in Branford, and I'm so happy to be a part of it! I've really started on something. For the first time, I've started to really construct my own knitting pattern. I've dabbled in adapting what someone else has written, and of altered things to suit my needs but never have I ever started completely from scratch. I just couldn't find something that worked.
After receiving all these purse clasps, and having no desire to sew tiny things, I'm knitting tiny things. I'm making a few different versions, then I'm going to chart it all together, and publish on this blog and my Ravelry page. I'm really excited as they are coming out very cute! Stay tuned! Someone just asked me if I like my day job. Without any hesitation, I said no. It's sad how many artists of all crafts need to take a day job to pay the bills and keep their passion as only a hobby. After spending a wonderful day at the Connecticut Rennesance Faire, I applaud all the Actors, Vendors, Musicians and organizers that have taken the risk of turning their passion into a job. It can't be easy to take that plunge. I hope to some day do it myself. From the guys that bring you The Connecticut Renaissance Faire...Robin Hood and his Merry Men are up to their old tricks! Come by The North Haven Fair Grounds from May 23 to June 7 Weekends and Memorial Day to see what all the fuss is about.
