Becoming Accountable


On October 3 I'll be teaching a beginning punch needle class at Haus Tirol in Williamsburg, Virginia.  


Yesterday I finished designing the piece I'll be teaching and transferred the design to my weaver's cloth.  Then I went and bought the DMC threads I'll be using to work the design.


I'm pretty darned sure I already have these colors in my stash, but it helps me to start fresh and see all the possibilities when choosing colors.

I'm posting about this to help me be accountable in the punching process.  I'll be checking in with you here every couple of days to keep you posted on my progress.  If you don't hear from me, please feel free to nag me in the comment section.  Nagging works!!

I have some fun plans for finishing this piece when done.  I'll keep you posted on that too! 

If anyone is interested in taking this class, please contact Haus Tirol at 757-220-0313.  Lydia and Paula will be happy to help!
 
It's 6:30 AM here in Maryland and as much as I'd like to go grab a couple more hours of sleep, I'm going to spend those hours punching.  And I'll love every second of it!

Hope you are all having a great week!
