Good Mail Day

September 24, 2005

Oh goody! Someone sent me a big box, and it’s very heavy. But what can be inside? Could it possibly be ….fabric?

Ho ho - it is fabric! But who could have possibly known how much I like stripes and polka-dots?

Just kidding, it was me of course. I drove from Cary to Carrboro to answer the siren’s call from the elusive Thimble Pleasures, and was richly rewarded. So well, in fact that my next task was to find the nearest UPS store to ship it home.

Fabric purchases have gotten a lot heavier since I’ve realized I have to buy bigger hunks for backgrounds. Not to mention some batiks for backing…

So I have been anxiously awaiting a package from myself. Now that it’s here, I’m ready to start the ritualistic washing, ironing, folding, and borking. (my quasi-trekkie term for organizing fabric into the “collective”) Maybe I’m obessive, but I really like doing that. Maybe it’s just procrastinating the real creative work.
