Needle Felting

I picked up a needle felting kit and some fiber. It's a little tricky to get the fibers to get what you want them to do. I wanted to make a duck, the colours I have would be perfect for a rubber ducky felted creature, but it didn't turn out like that. Now the creation looks like a little yellow birdie. I still don't know if I like it and I have no idea if the thing is finished. I'll let the ladies at knit night have a look and tell me if it needs... more....

I also sent out Fetching to my Mom. I hope she will like them. I'm going to start Spirogya later tonight. I hope they will turn out as well as Fetching did.

Gosh....

After spending way to much time on Youtube watching "So you think you can dance" I had the brilliant thought to look up my old dance teachers. One was very easy to find. The studio is still in operation, even though she is using the same old tired songs. It even looks like the same set of ladies that were in the Adult group when I left the studio 15 years ago.

The other teacher I looked up is, thankfully, still teaching.. I think..... There isn't much information about what happened to the Factory and when I looked at the schedule her initials don't show. I am so very tempted to phone the company she is working for and asking what she is doing now. That just might be to invasive.

Now I'm wondering what happened to classmates.... did they make it as dancers.... did they try..... only google will tell.

Oi

Internet access was down for the weekend. Something to do with the server's network going all wonky. I wanted to get some more stuff entered into ravelry and play some pirates. Oh well. Good thing is I got some housework done and found a new obsession with some TV shows.

I'm looking forward to some of the shows on Canada Day. Until knit night, if it's still on. And Gossamer should be updating tomorrow, so I might be reading lots tomorrow night.

I guess the only good news is that I got wireless working at my house. So I can work on my laptop. Now all I have to do is clean the deck and setup outside.

In the key of X

Just about a month to go for the new X-files movie. I would like to go opening night, since I think August will be a very busy month. I have added a neat widget to my blog that counts down the time until the movie.

A new obsession

I have decided to go as green as I can. I'm starting by doing the easiest things I can. I have replaced most of my light bulbs with the energy efficient ones, I rarely drive my car and I just got all of my recycling stuff from the township (it was only 2 weeks late).

On a knitting note, I spent last night testing out a pattern from a book Jules gave me. I am blocking the pieces at the moment. I like how fast it knit up but I won't use that self striping yarn remnants to test clothing.

Going to try this again....

Hai. Time to try blogging again. It's been to long and I have no idea what the password/email account my last one was on.

I joined Ravelry today. It's a knitting/crochet community. So far so good, now to enter all of my yarn and needles and projects.
