Tonight my church art and craft group will meet, and I plan to attend (first time in quite a while). It will be good to talk about something besides illness. And the Deep Spaces exhibit should arrive in Huntsville soon, the exhibit will go up, Larkin Van Horn will fly in, and the opening is set for January 19. Time to work with the museum staff on marketing. The local quilt guild, Tall Pines, is graciously handling the reception refreshments and arrangements. We've usually had very good response to quilt exhibits--years ago we had a show of Suzanne Marshall's work with great attendance, and more recently showed off the work of the Front Range Art Quilt group, which generated a lot of interest. But this is the first time the works have all been in the same format (18" wide, 45" long), and of course they could not conceivably be used to keep somebody warm unless you fastened them all together. So I look forward to the comments.
I have got to get back to fiber! A person can only be kind, objective, helpful and patient for so long before needing regeneration in the studio. So last night I ordered some recycled sari silk yarn for a lightweight sweater, and this morning I'll do some work on Tympani II before going to the hospital. The sweater is something I can work on while I support the rehab effort, so I hope it won't take too long for the yarn to arrive.

I remember (from our days as "the old ladies" in our nsg. class) your black sheep sweater, a true predictor of your present success. May I have your email address?
