Dear Yogis,

What a hectic two weeks and none of it yoga asana, but all of it requiring a yogic attitude!  Fashion Parade Rehearsal, then the parade, then a Zoom Tarot Tea Bag Painting Demonstration hosted by The Tarot Guild.  I am so sorry you missed this, it was great fun, we got a lot done, and I am looking forward to the next one.  I have so much to do – Tarot decks to pack, Web sites to up-date, people to contact and say thanks!  Plus I have a project – painting the Kabbalistic Tree of Life on a Tea Bag…. what a challenge.  Over the weekend I tidied (can’t work in confusion) and this morning sometime i want to swap my paintings around on the walls.

I am going to have a TAROT Teaching Class in the next month or so, both at the studio and on zoom.  Please, if you are interested, please let me know – I think the Tarot Guild will be interested, as well as being interested in any paintings.. they were such a fabulous class.

INSTAGRAM

Yes, I have been there a long while.  My lovely Denim Slouch handbag  which I finished making was loaded – you will love it, I do.  Later in the day i will put it on Facebook too.  I put in all the little pockets and zippers i love.  It is light, comfortable, roomy and like a portable office.  If you want one – ask.  The people who have one love them as much as I do.  Don’t chuck out your favourite jeans, send them to me, and I will make a handbag for you.  I charge according to size, pockets,  zips and other personalisations.  They last for years.  When they are done as a bag you fill them with soil and pot a plant in them!  Nothing is wasted around here!

STUDIO AND ON-LINE CLASSES

I have a few folk coming for one-on-ones to determine their class levels, their physical requirements,  and “goals” so soon we will have new yoga classes starting.  Watch this space.  I like having a one on one to start out.  The fact that a student has done yoga before is no guarantee that they will know what they are doing or be able to join the class they have focussed on.

Dear Yogis,

Here is my thought for the day -” It doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman – that is why there are so many of us (Jane Goodall)”.

Yesterday I took my clothes in for the rehearsal (The Wearable Art Fashion Parade is happening next Saturday) and as much as I love the youngsters in the group, the older brigade were hard to understand.  They seemed always to start from the difficult end of things, and looked constantly frazzled and frayed.  It wasn’t easy – and my clothes were complex in so far as I had considered outfits, and had not done single pieces.    There were a lot of clothes in a small space, and it could have been easier if we had been given directions about labelling, dividing the garments up into “items” as they were to be worn.  But they were being handled as they had always been handled.  I’m a difficult woman I think, and am always looking for a way things can flow better.  I think the music is going to be fabulous (thanks Kirsty and Zoe), and should be made into a CD so that we can enjoy all of the tracks later.

There were some beautiful outfits.  I especially loved the SILK FELTED outfits.  They were very expensive, but the only couture/art pieces.  Not only had I not experienced silk felt before, I had never seen REVERSIBLE felted clothing.  It must be so difficult to achieve.  I googled but couldn’t find this technique – not felted ON silk (plenty of these), but felted WITH silk, with merino wool base felted, not a fabric.  Magnificent.  Maybe I can get this lovely artist to come here and exhibit the clothing in the studio?  I will try.    I love working with clothing – the only difficulty is thinking of it as WORK!

I have some outfits I want to work on – a long vest, balloon pants (I do have one pair in the show next Saturday like the two on the left).
