I'm the one on the right, standing next to my design wall. This was taken by my friend on Day 2 (Saturday) of the Japanese Puzzle Workshop. This was after I spent Friday night creating a design to prevent complete public humiliation! It's pretty hard to tell what's what in this picture, but this pattern is actually pretty easy (never thought I would say that!) once you get the hang of it. But it's a good deal of work and highly process-oriented. Was a real challenge for me. At the point this picture was taken, I was getting pretty tired, as you can see. But at least I had created a design that I liked. You can actually begin to see the mountain peaks, even before any of the pieces were sewn together. Last night, I finished sewing all the pieces together. Now back to my project for my beginning piecing class which I go to again next week. Can I remember the assignment? Log Cabin, Nine Patch Variation, Flying Geese, Friendship Star, Rail Fence. Oh yes, it all comes back to me now.
Re my singing debut, I totally bombed but it was fun. Yesterday my voice coach told me we'd have to work on technique and that he would pick my music from now on. He selected "Show Me" from "My Fair Lady." Does he know it's my favorite musical ever? I am going to have to practice much more now because this song is for a soprano and I'm a mezzo soprano. Besides which, I don't want to repeat my performance on Sunday at my first voice recital.
Have my skating lesson today and can't wait. Will work on my ice dances. Fun, fun, fun. Then home to quilt, of course.
