POR AMOR AL ARTE

i can't believe it's already saturday and past 10 a.m., this week has been a whirl. what with unpacking all the boxes from the fair, putting everything away, listing what didn't sell and finish a custom order for 6 of my crochet berets and then drive them into the canyon for delivery. they were thrilled with them and have ordered more to give as gifts to friends and family for Christmas. today i must make time to clean house, take care of myself, and start to pack my suitcase, mostly things my friends have asked me to buy for them.

however, these hands continue their quest for beauty and managed to pull out some beads to create a felt purse. wish i could keep it since i love the colors and texture. but need every penny i can save between now and the 5th since we havedecided to take a trip into Bariloche, crossing seven lakes across the Andes while we're there. it's not every day that you get to go to the Patagonia and it is one of the last ecosystems left in the world so a must. wish i could venture even further south into the Torres del Paine but that will have to be next time.
