Has it been THAT long?

And the answer is? Yes, no, and maybe.


So, what's been happening? More pictures than words, anyway...


Making samples for a class I am teaching at the Airpot Sewing Center on June 30th. Finishing up four-dozen bucket hats for Designing Wahine in Makawao. Revised SHAG (yet again!) Coming to conclusions regarding the manufacture and distribution of my sorbet(s). Answered an email that I didn't read properly, and I am sure the reply was viewed as being quite bizarre. Hopefully going to finish the new group I am designing for Fall quilt market in Houston. Getting ready for my trip east mid-June... hopefully going to go and see DARK SHADOWS this week... and the list goes on. 


I'm not attending Spring market in KC this weekend - staying here and holding down the fort, so to speak, but I'll relay anything interesting as it happens - specifically the reaction to the next group of colors for Mirror Ball Dot!


Best,


Mark

A squash gifted to my by my friends Megan and Mikel - I wonder what it will end up cooking up as...

A lovely evening about a week ago - these photo do NOT do it justice!

 The first pineapple from the property - wasn't the sweetest but it was the best as it was our own!

 The four-dozen children's bucket hats tagged and ready to be delivered 

to Designing Wahine, Makawao, Maui, HI.

 Buddha's Hand update - the flowers - all almost ready to burst and again, the fruit is the center of the flower - as they say here in Hawai'ian pigeon - the flowers are choke (many)

Dark Shadows Has Arrived!

Now, this is not the Dark Shadows that I grew up with and have grown up to become cultist about, but I cannot wait to see this take on a displaced person coming to grips with a new reality!

Dark Shadows 2012 - Update

Here's another photo I found on the Internet, credit unknown.

Dark Shadows 2012

There are few times that I am giddy like a little child, and this is one of them. The Tim Burton-Johnny Depp-Colleen Atwood-Danny Elfman collaborations are brilliant milestones in my life, and a great source of inspiration (my novel SHAG is a prime example, in which I practically pay homage to Tim. My dream would be to have TB direct the film version and Johnny to do a motion capture performance of Monsieur D'LeFolb).

I'm weak, so I had to post the newly released photo stills from the May 11 release of DARK SHADOWS! Can't wait!!!!
