At the September meeting of The Makers, there was knitting, hand stitching, French knot making, and Pam filled us in on the experience of Squam. Because dreaming about trips dedicated to making is as important as making.
We discussed needle books and table runners and kantha stitching and kimono jackets.
Oh it's lovely to let your mind explore, in an unrestricted manner, all the the things you may, possibly, could, make. Someday. Somewhere.
We admired this lovely screen door as we made our way into Pam's kitchen. To quote all of our mothers "they just don't make them the way they used to".
I now find myself unable to tear myself away from a needlepoint project I started several years ago.
Which is actually a perfect thing for me to take on my next traveling adventure.
Actually I have 2 trips coming up in October. We shall see how much I am able to get done. Or not. I like to always leave myself open to the possibility of new ideas dropping in and taking root. Even if it is in the middle of something else.
