For those interested in making lace with wire, there is room for two more
lacemakers to come to the Paisley workshop to be taught by Lenka Suchanek at The
Lace Museum on March 6 and 7.
I signed up for that class 3? weeks ago (will be absent from both lists March 4-11, you'll be pleased to know <g>) and have been walking around on cloud nine ever since, and hugging myself every 15 minutes <g>. Everything, but *everything* has "come together" so well, I still can't get over it.
First, I've been trying to "nail" a class with Lenka for *ages* (at least 4 yrs, anyway <g>), and here she's teaching a paisley, which's been one of my favourite shapes since I was 5... Second, Paula Harten is going to house and feed me for the duration and, as if it weren't enough, she'll be hostess to Lenka and her husband too... Third, DS found me a flight which, while not "dirt cheap", is very reasonable indeed (especially considering that I'm flying from a very small airport)... Fourth, I'll get to spend 4 evenings with the said DS, whom I usually see only at Christmastime... Fifth, I'll get to spend most of a day with Cathleen Belleville (of Chrysanthemum Lace book and Binche "Olive Branches, among many accomplishments), hopefully talking about her -- totally exciting -- new ruffled lace ... Sixth, I won't have to cook for a full week (though I'll need to double my efforts over the next few days, so as to leave enough in the freezer)...
As we used to say back in Poland: "I feel as if God himself has pooped in my pocket" :)
