I am typing with fingers crossed, (quite difficult), my toes are crossed too....and my legs. All of this in the hope that we don't disappear today, enough already.
I am going to cary on as if nothing at all could go wrong...ignore it, bury my head in the sand. All that could of course change if during the course of today something goes awry....I will be you know where if that happens.
These pictures, this lace....sigh.....work from ''4''. The first images are of my newest piece, the others of the collection that is rapidly growing. There are more...in a ledger....but for today it's just these. I am actually considering changing the name of my house from ''Ruane Towers'' to ''sample central''.....I am surrounded by them. I know that when I'm gone, (in around 100 years), I know that all these will end up in a skip, a dump or set light to with a match, I just know it. I won't really care I don't suppose because I won't be here and I have to say I do feel sorry for my kids with all the stuff they will have to sort out but for now....I'm here, staying for longer than I ought and I love being surrounded by this ''stuff''.
I went off topic a bit there didn't I? Sorry about that.....
I am off to London first thing Monday morning. I will post tomorrow and Sunday, of course I will, I can't keep away, but.....Alchemy will not be available after Sunday basically because I won't be here to send out the mail and PDF documents you get when you register. I will list it again when I come back I'm just not sure yet which day that will be, it could be Friday...we start a week on Monday. You can read more about Alchemy here and see some of the brilliant work from last years group.
I'm going now....I made a mess. I dropped a whole half pint of double cream on the kitchen floor and I did clean it up but I'm thinking some may have gone under the cooker so I'm off to check.
