Booth shot for show apps

It's been a horribly grueling weekend. The show pix are done. Yeah! The packing has not begun. Half the merchandise has not been finished. And the garden is getting my attention. I've gotta plant before I leave. But before all that, I had to help Shakespeare celebrate his birthday. So while finishing up some of the projects, I hit one of my favorite shows, Live Wire, Episode 145 in honor of the bard and the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. And wonder of wonders, they mentioned our local radio station, WNPR -which will not talk to my Android:(

Dye baths have been continuing. So far, madder (tangerine), then logwood (blue/gray), cochineal (purple), and now rhubarb (moss green). The wool is not drying fast enough. It needs to be wound nicely in 4 or 8 oz increments. Can't measure when wet. And it's wool so it MUST air dry. It'd help if it quit raining.

Tuesday is D-day. It's the day I leave for the wild windy west of Oklahoma. Wish me luck!
