So…Part 2 of the story goes like this…
After I took the class in Poway…I didn’t do much for several months. I felt a little intimidated. A little overwhelmed. Everyone’s art was so intricate. So perfect. Mine felt…like I was finger painting. I did a lot of other things in the mean time. While we were in Japan, I had gone on a wild binge at a craft store. One of my finds was a foam Kumihimo loom. I was familiar with Kumihimo as I love all types of fiber art. I started playing with it a bit, and got totally engrossed.

I started cranking out braids. They work up pretty quickly, and you can use any kind of fibers.

You can do anything with them…necklaces, bracelets…even pens.
I am working up a bunch of new designs as we speak. I seem to have only one problem. I am making all this really cool stuff…and I really have no idea, or time, to figure out how to sell it. So I have boxes of finished “things”…and I keep adding to them.
But the story doesn’t exactly end here.
