Today I fell into stewing about everyone who has ever hurt my feelings. What an incredible waste of time. I was so glad when Joseph showed up because he is a friend I can't imagine him hurting anyone's feelings.
He went and picked up lunch and coconut bubble tea. Normally bubble tea freaks me out completely because I spent so much time around amphibian eggs and larvae but this was really good.
I picked and prodded at thirty unfinished projects and Joseph productively created and cut out a new pattern for himself. He is really good at pattern drafting and is now working at Wild Rose
Tattoo T shirts. Thank God he can gossip a little and has interesting things to tell me about his life. He doesn't even mind too much if I fall into a motherly advice role. I am so glad he was around today.
C, V and I talked about textile artists and hoarding. We all admitted to it. I am not sure C is a hoarder though. She just lives in a tiny place and has a tiny studio. V and I have the largest studios and I know I hoard cloth and supplies. Tomorrow I am going to throw away some of my old dried out paint jars and bottles. There is a special place in our studio recycling for them to go.
I had also better look at the extra piles of cloth that keep being donated. V. suggested we just have a giant trade off and just invite people from the street.
Maybe I can just give away free bags of fabrics at the Culture Crawl or charge $1.00 for a little bag. Maybe I can make doll kits or something for gifts. Lots and lots of them!
Any good ideas?
