after the morgan class of 14
i was asked to do a private class of 7
and the pace was as busy,
but it's a different sort of business
lokta shifu
making stump looms
two more on the back porch
an ingenious method of storing the loom and the yarn
in a cigar box
which is also the loom!
thank you rebecca!
small looms and large
and then there was daisy
a very large girl who
when pam wasn't looking
did a bit of freeloading
the top of the cigar box
slicing messages
the group and daisy
and the obligatory teacher in the picture
holding the cigar box loom
morning walks are
so very interesting
i monitor the bluebirds
they monitor me
the moon is unconcerned
and the cows lick
each other
I just love the cigar box storage loom!
ReplyDeletethe cigar box IS genius!

ReplyDeletejude, a helluva a fine group of women, indeed!
ReplyDeleteOh, this looks like such a fun class! I'd love to try this :)
ReplyDeletenancy, well, i am teaching shifu at longridge in a couple of weeks, but i think you're a long way from new hampshire, right?
ReplyDeleteAfter our class on Tuesday I was headed for the Morgan to buy some paper for spinning. Apparently I was in a wonderful daze following ou shifu experience. I was waiting at a light at Fairmont thinking of projects, possibilities with shifu and the grand two days with such amazing women. I wondered why the light was soooo long when I realized cars to my right were actually moving, to my left was a parking meter!!!!! How long was I parked?? Shifu high????

linda, linda, do be careful to not be seduced by the shifu goddess! really, this is so wild, a great story.
