you can only stay in fantasy-land for so long. or so they tell me. shibori week was AMAZING and INTENSE, and i have lots of photos and details to share with you, hopefully tomorrow. while i was immersed in the 50-or-so hour workshop (including homework) i neglected just about every detail of my *regular* life, and then i had a super-fun visit from my BFF siri (who showed up wearing a total thrift-score shibori dress!), during which we ate our way through Accord and beyond. she brought some honey lavender goat cheese from nettle meadow farm which was better than manna could possibly be… we ate it with peaches, fresh mint and maple syrup.
and we are thoroughly enjoying our first-ever homegrown tomato season here at HPF. however, the reality is indeed returning and i am acutely aware that september is only 14 days away! it’s always my busiest month of the year, but this one may well be the busiest month i’ve ever had in my life. i’ll be selling at three craft fairs (no wait, FOUR!) and teaching in nyc (pssst: at the new improved Purl!) plus three upstate classes. AND of course it is the beginning of the fall selling season in my shop. yikes! ok, to the cutting table i go…
