Afterward, I made a trip to Blacksburg. Fall is in the air and the leaves are turning like crazy! It was a great pleasure to drive along and think about what I am doing.
Another vest is being worked on fast and furiously. Noro, again. I used the Folk Vest Book for the pattern, but, of course, I changed a lot of it to work with Noro. Silk Garden is always my favorite. I used a bit of the stripe effect I learned from Brooklyn Tweed when I first met him. This effect always gets rave reviews when I wear anything done in this manner.
I bought another Noro mini-book to try a few things in there for holiday gifts.
Another ball of Magnolia Art Yarn is in the works for the scribble shawl for a gift.
Now to my serious art work. I have been doing more 3-D sculptural works with the thread painting. One day I will show you how it all works out. I gave a preview the other day. No matter what I do it always eventually turns into something that pays homage to space. I think I like space.
I love what the City Of Blacksburg has done. The revamping of the main streets are amazing. I wish the rest of America was busy working on their infra-structure like Blacksburg is doing. When the economy picks-up
they will already be ready to go full blast.
I got a kick out of the bus sign where it tells where it is heading. PHD is what it said. No street or area.
Mish Mish is the serious art supply store I head for when I go to Blacksburg. They have tons of material for architectural models.
Anyway, I hope you all have a blessed weekend!
