Jury results are in and I’m in Filberg!!It is one of my favourite shows of the year. Joan is in, Claire is in and all is right with the world. Now the bad news…..

secret project has hit a snafu…not really….more like a dead stop. By now everyone is aware that there will be a great night hosted by the MOV on April 9. I can’t think of anything better than marrying craft and alcohol and a yarn mosh pit. Birkeland Bros is representing and a few of us are coming along for the ride to do some demos for spinning, felting and weaving. I consider that an action packed evening.

What better way to celebrate a night of craft than a good old fashioned yarn bombing at the museum? NOT ALLOWED. A big fat, no way, jose…..Sucks, and it was such a great plan. The intention was not just to yarn bomb for the sake of bombing, but to recycle the project into scarves for the DTES. It was to be art and function and all warm, fuzzy, crafty.

Now just straight crafty.

Well —I can’t complain. It saves me a lot of time. I still have the yarn and it can still be used for the DTES, but secretly I wanted to climb through the water feature and make mittens for the giant crab, or at least 6 leg warmers for it. If that does some how happen, it has nothing to do with me. I will have an alibi. When someone says no, I get it. I don’t have to like it, but I get it.

I consoled myself and spun a pound of BFL. I’m still sick, but I will not be denied my consolation spinning.
