Don't ever forget your Google password!

          Talk about a dog and pony show.  So many hoops to jump through.  Actually, it is in trying to remember the small details that the passage of time has allowed you to forget.  Still it is good to know that there is security behind you, well all around you, if you are trying to access your blog account after a few years of absence.

          Still spinning fiber, still knitting, still weaving.  I have recently gone back to quilting.  I have made so many quilts in my life, and all of them have been given away as gifts.  It's about time to keep one!

           I joined the Craftsy site awhile back to take a few craft classes.  Things I have been interested in, but really never pursued.  I found a "free motion quilting" class.  What a hoot!      Well that got things started, I have been ravishing their class rooms ever since.  From Jewelry making to Cake Decorating, from Weaving to Bread and Cheese making.  It's all there.  Including my love of fiber.  I took a floor loom weaving class, given by Janet Dawson.  Excellent class!  Angela Tong teaches a basic Rigid Heddle class.  Also Excellent!

           Boy do I want an eight shaft loom!  I have a rigid heddle loom,  I get by with the use of string heddles on dowel lift bars, and pickup sticks to recreate a 4 shaft patterns.

           It's always good to dream, but now back to MY quilt!   Perfect day wishes to all!
