a hobby a day keeps the doctor away

That cold had me down but not out this week. I still managed to hang with homeschooling friends on Monday; go to Madley Spinners on Tuesday; do ice skating, brownies, and archery on Wednesday; and have dinner out with a friend on Thursday while kids and Scott were roller skating with buddies. By Friday, I was mostly back on track, so we headed to Middletown to take care of some errands and stopped at Wesleyan Potters to see Jeannie Thomma's exhibit of hand-felted purses, pouches, and scarves. And of course we browsed the gallery shop there to admire the glasswork and knitting and felting and weaving and many other art forms. We were all quite enthralled by the tour of the pottery studio and weaving loft at Wesleyan Potters too.

Leah and I then topped the week off with another fantastic Knit Night at Pixie Sticks, where we chatted with many fun and enthusiastic folks, and were inspired by their projects and all the luscious fibers surrounding us. Pics from that event are on Audrey's Pixie Sticks blog. Whee !!!!!
