of participating in a big show, of course, is the shopping. We met some charming people, and amongst them, a company that makes designer fabric, and comes to the French shows to sell the offcuts, beautifully packaged and carefully selected. I have plans for this lot, and the others, just as soon as I get things back to normal.
Normal? I hear you wonder... well, okay, bad choice of word. But I am having a general clear out and clear up, clearing the decks, if you will, before starting on some new work. I also have to get a quilt ready to go out to the US, my contribution to the 'From The Heart' exhibition that will show at several of the Mancuso venues this year. And then down to some serious writing, to finish the lutradur book, and also to begin a new one, which I think will turn out to be the book I wished I could find when I was starting out as an art quilter...
And I want to paint, too. I had a series of ideas, breakthroughs, if you like, in France, about the direction I'd like my painting to move in. Now I get to clear the studio, and go buy some materials, ready to start. It's exciting, like a new start always is. I'm looking forward to a few weeks of focussed activity.

Big hugs to you and Robin...
Glad to hear your trip was so successful in many different ways. The least of which was now you know what not to do to your hair:-) I really liked the picture of you with your new do, nice to see you smiling. Good luck with your new directions and inspirations.
