So that was that!

Having been counting the months, weeks and days until "R " day, it finally happened on Friday. How do I feel? Sad, well yes, because I will miss some of the people I worked with, but no because I really didn't enjoy the job!
So what next? Well, there's the Certificate of Achivement in spinning, there's the current warp to get on the loom and the yarn to order for the experiment in Ikat weaving. Then there's the embroidery machine and all the various bits of equipment and experiments with multi media etc. I don't think I will have much free time to feel sad about not working for the LSC!!!
I have a few days before I need to pack for the trip to Cornwall for Christmas, so I'm just going to have fun and play with a few of my toys! There will also be time to get the cards done and the presents wrapped and I might even go in for some fancy ribbon work!!!

The first issue of Quiltwow came online on Saturday. I haven't had a lot of time to look in detail, but it looks promising. Now I have more time available, I may be able to meet up with other wowies etc.
Until then, though, there are always the ducks to feed and more time to spend with this small person. I saw this fleece fabric on a market stall and just had to have it!
