I think I now know why I'm constantly under pressure. It's self inflicted. If I stayed home more often I could work properly.
Some time ago a friend asked if we'd like to go to his daughter's wedding in Melbourne. Why not and a chance to hang out in our favourite city so that's where I've been. Had a wonderful time and came home needing a rest.
The first day we trained to Williamstown to see the Sea Shepherd boats just back from their anti-whaling adventures in the southern ocean, sporting a few scars but a job well done. One day we took the train to Castlemaine for their arts festival. We spent some time in the Melbourne Art Gallery and I caught a Dior Yamamoto exhibition and, of course, the wedding was great.

Before leaving for Melbourne I worked flat out and both looms were warped with hand dyed yarn thinking I'd be right in to the weaving on return. Yeah right! A flu shot put paid to two days; I just slept. At this point I can report two of three bridesmaid wraps are woven and one blanket is rolled on the cloth beam.

As you can see I'm working with a lot of red at present. Every inch of the studio seems to be shouting red, pick me, me next!
