Goodbye

Today Kath has gone to a better place with no pain and is at peace.At the end she slipped away and somehow life will never be the same again,I miss her allready but the cloak of friendship she placed around me will keep me warm in these cold times,and I will never forget her.I pray for all those she has left behind.RIP my dear friend C

When The Sunshine Goes

Today is a very very sad day for me, my friend Kath of nearly 30 years is dying and just after I sat down to watch the x factor last nuight she took a turn for the worse and started her journey.I chased to the ward and managed to have some time with her whilst she could talk.I cannot say ‘goodbye ‘ as it hurts too much and I have to believe she will still be with me every day, she is more than a sister,friend,soulmate,I love the very essence of her and we have been through life’s adventures together.She has been a second mum to my children and they too love her.Today I have been very qiuet and looked at the weather and the birds and the trees and relived our times in my head. So goodnight my dear friend, come and visit me often, let us laugh again at the absurdities in living, dream of what will be,find calmness and stillness in the silly world and I pray for your safe passage . So for now I feel I have lost everything I will not be posting for a while until my mojo is back and my heart not so heavy,enjoy your families this Christmas and your friends and never take’ forever’ for granted.

Good fun at Viking Loom

Well last Monday I had a great time in York with Viking Loom and we did lots of new wire work and stunning work was done by my ladies.Making students stop work at lunchtime to have a break is hard when they are so conscious of how quickly the time goes but if you do not have a rest for reflection at least, you actually miss out.The dates for spring 2010 and autumn 2010 are set now so go over to Viking Loom and take a look

thank you

thank you blogsurfer.us for visiting my blogs today —cheers

Colours

Had so many emails re this beautiful yellow piece that I have  decided to do differing coloured pieces every month–added to the colour pieces I design for Margie Deebs colour forcasts which come out seasonally http://www.margiedeeb.com.

Choosing colour mixes is hard and is a learnt craft and skill  so read as much as you can on the subject I will place some colour links here for you

Yellow is the colour

Isn’t she beautiful I just adore this stone and it reminded me of avery old song which went along the lines of ‘yellow is the colour of my true loves hair in the morning’ always wonder what colour her hair was later in the day!!! haha
