Here’s another pic of some new scarves for the RYS show on the 2nd. You can see the end of Zeus as he eats his dinner in the front of the pic. Not all of these are finished, and I will be taking some more pictures for my site photo album tomorrow. I posted some new scarves on the photo album last week, in case you missed them.

I also bought some new surikomi bake [pic] this week, from McClain’s Printmaking Supplies. They are beautiful! I already had a 6 and 10 from my college days, and I purchased the 2, 4, and 8 to have a bit more variety in brush size when using these. We bought them for our katazome semester, but I find them useful for more general dyeing tasks as well. They hold so much dye and are great for when you don’t have much dye but need it to go far. Plus, they are soft and beautifully made. You can tell which ones in this pic have endured years of use, as opposed to my fresh new brushes.

I have only one week to get ready for the show, and I’m equal parts excited and nervous. It will be my first show, and I just want everything to go well. Thank goodness I have sane people around me to calm me down and remind me that everything will be ok.
