Not sure about Exeter but I have my ticket for October and Alexander Palace. Started my shopping list and it's getting longer and longer. <br />Keep looking at your dying processes and when I can reclaim my art spaces I am very nervously going to attempt to dye some wool with dye and wool I brought from wingham wools last time they were at pra sands. Take care and we must meet up. xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7304535898968644093.post-6312799524107157352009-08-26T22:33:13.333+01:002009-08-26T22:33:13.333+01:00This is a wonderful process and the pictures of it...This is a wonderful process and the pictures of it are art in themselves!

I may have to go shopping again! <br /><br />I have a similarly supportive DH who is no longer surprised at the things I go gooey over! Aren't men wonderful? (Don't tell them I said that!)

I fear the mess, I've no good workroom outside the kitchen which is small, but the urge is there.<br />Have you tried fresh cranberries yet? They'd be way cheaper than blue berries here, which are dear.

Thank you for answering my questions!...Hi Carolyn! Thank you for answering my questions! I find the "playing with colors" process so fascinating. I've noticed that when it comes to commercial plastics, all producers seem to use the same shades - so unimaginative! It is fun to see what a colorist can do - I love that aspect of your art! I'm glad your computer is all de-fuzzed and working again. Purple is so rich and sassy - I've always loved it. But then again, I can't get enough yellow, green, red, pink . . . <br />xoppPom Pomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524994024698986829noreply@blogger.com
