03/14/2006: "my dog ate it"
no more snow days. back to work. today was pretty much back to normal. the sun came out for a while and it was gloriously bright and sunny. i even broke out the sunglasses. happy pi day, by the way. some friends of mine were celebrating the day by going and buying pies. i did not mention this holiday to andy. a math holiday and pie is just too much of a good thing. and speaking of food.... i have been playing around with silk cuff bracelets lately. i made one as a whim and i am enjoying them enormously. this one is a result of the snow day yesterday. i was looking for quotes and proverbs and came up with "canus meus id comedit" or "my dog ate it". it is made from "reclaimed" hand-dyed silk. reclaimed, you ask? i have a basket of silk scarves in my sewing room. more than one person needs really. i decided that some of them were complete disasters as scarves, but they were marvelous when cut up in to pieces. this one is a bit from an experiment in glue resists and painted dyes. then stamped with permanent dye inks. then stitched.
