In the studio: Book of Hope Page 7 is allllmost finished. I've been putting layers of sand in paint on it...trying to decide on edges...and coloring and recoloring the nails. 3 more 12" cicle pieces in the works...more on collaborators and growthpods.

In the craftroom (aka err ok the kitchen table right now): fabric scraps and squares and strips...falling into a world of subtle textures...just playing around with ragamuffin sewing....my nail weaves out of fabric;)
whitetextures
But also dreaming of textiles...designing in my sketchbook, envisioning rags and repetitions...fabric rolls and dresses and pillows ohmy. CoopaCraft visions and brainstorms.


In the cyberworld: writing and colab-writing new posts for CraftCycle.net blog with my friend Lars. Check it out!

Enjoying Razoo.com community immensely. Meeting some amazingly inspiring folks who work with the kids at La Chureca in Nicaragua.

Buying my mom a birthday gift at the local Fair Trade store (World Village Market) and ending up getting a bunch of other wonderful things AND having a loooong and awesome conversation with the volunteer there. Oh the dreams...will it happen? I'll have to take some pics of what I got.so beautiful and inspiring!Agh if I could only work there instead of where I do...

Bike ride with hubby to the bay for an overdue and promised swim. Floating again....just the best ever feeling.

Popular singer Sarah McLachlan stars in this video, which highlights with graphics and music the normal cost of producing a contemporary video and some alternate ways that money could be spent. For instance, the hair and makeup expenses for a video shoot would cost about $5,000 for a day in Los Angeles. Or, that money could provide a year of schooling for 145 girls in Afghanistan. By the way, this video cost $15 and the bulk of the normal expenses was spent on schools, orphanages and meals in several developing countries.
(woohoo!)
