Well, it certainly has been ages since I last wrote. My excuse is that I still hadnt't done much in the way of craft stuff and as this is mainly supposed to be a craft blog, there wasn't that much to write.
For those of you who are following the Rory saga, the only thing to report is that it seems no longer to be a saga. Rory is settling down well and the Cognative Behaviour Therapy seems to be working and school is good.
So - onto craft stuff! I have finally done a fair amount. I would have photos, but we seem to have misplaced the digital camera, so hopefully I will be able to put them up in the next few days.
This past weekend was the Warwick Spinners & Weavers Group camp, held at Leslie Dam outside the town of Warwick in QLD. I went, and unlike last time, i had a very safe and happy time and did not come back with any cracked bones. (for those of you who might not remember; at this camp last year I fell over and cracked 2 ribs - ouch!) What a fantastic weekend I had. All I did was spin, eat, chat and sleep. for about two and a half days. Now that's a good weekend. The other thing was I was out of range on my mobile most of the time, so the only time my family could talk to me was when I called them once a day. Yeay, I escaped!!!
While we were at Warwick camp (there were quite a few of us from the brisbane group and I got a lift with Paula - thanks Paula!) I did heaps of spinning. I spun about 100gms of green wool, 50gms of pink silk, 100gms of pinky purple wool and about 40 grams of Pink & slightly green wool. more spinning in one weekend than in the last about 5 months!
The thing I love about these camps is how they really inspire me and keep me motivated to get more done. I have really been a little unmotivated in the last few months - and being summer in Brisbane doesn't help either! So hopefully, I will get more done and be able to show you all my lovely creations.
Anyway, I promised Rory that I would take him to Hungry Jacks for dinner and he is starting to get restless. As I said, I will try to upload some photos in the next few days.
See ya!
