Don't you love it when the delivery man arrives with new goodies? Last Friday before the credit card died (new one yesterday fortunately) - we had a big new shipment of Moonglow Sprays including 12 new colours. Very exciting - they are on the web and I have made 2 new 5 set packs but there is a Frosty Forest Green which will be part of a new 3 set - maybe something Ironbark -
Yesterday was a busy parcel in day - along with the credit card man, a new print run of Let's Play with The Flower Stitcher (amazing to think we have sold the first print), a big box of Woven Wire Tube arrived - with all the ones we have been out of and 14 new colours - there is a yummy violet which I love - the other one above it is a pink. Hopefully they will all be on the web before too long.
Then we got 18 new Stylish Stencils - the one above is Harlequin and it is sprayed with Cadbury's Milk Chocolate Brown. The two below are Mosaic Square - positive and negative and sprayed with Cadbury and Golden Sleighbells Gold.
Yesterday was the start of Hot Needles Cool Stitches - I always worry when a new class begins in case things go wrong but now I can relax and get onto the second lesson.
I have also enrolled in 3 different online classes - Carla's The Art of Silliness 3 - not that I have finished 2 yet but I loved 1 and I have them printed out and ready to work on when I have time. I am doing Lisa's beading class which is quite gentle and I have worked lesson 1 - Lisa sent me most suitable beads to match my Stonehaven theme. My third class is Jude Hill's Spirit Cloth - I love the whole concept of slow cloth - I wouldn't call my efforts spirit because I am not heavily into them but I think the gentleness of the slow cloth matches the feeling we have to slow food. So I shall be busy but these are all things which complement what I am doing anyway.
I started working the first Holey Moley Club stuff - Flower Power is where we will commence.
Bruce is on the plane from Sapporo to Hong Kong and will be here in the morning. We haven't seen him for nearly 2 years. He goes back in May and he and Kaz, after cycling around Hokkaido, will both be back in Perth. The weather in Perth is going to be a shock after the snow in Sapporo. He is bringing one of his bikes - it is not any of these ones in the photo above.

I can't imagine anyone cycling on those bikes any time soon - especially in that weather! How wonderful it will be to see Bruce though. Love the new colours of the moonshadow sprays. I have resisted enrolling in your classes as I know I don't have time, I am already stretched with what I am committed to - but I am sorely tempted! Cheers
Don't know how you fit it all it Dale - but it all sounds great. What a great reunion you'll have with Bruce - he'll not want his bike but a nice cool swim with that change of temperature.
Dale,
Your life is sure a busy one, but without you we wouldn't have all our lovely goodies. Must be exciting to look forward to seeing Bruce after 2 years.
