National Capital Art Glass Guild meeting today
I finally made it to a NCAGG meeting this year. Last one I was at was probably Sept 2008 for the Annual Picnic and Auction. I do wish I made it a priority and I should. I love the members and the sharing nature of the Guild. Today there was a sharing/troubleshooting session and the work was beautiful. The probelems were covered so well, everyone shared hints and sugestions. The snacks were nice too. It was great to see Jean Lee again, so much time has passed and I hate that we can not find a time to get together and visit.
I kitted for Monday and Tuesday’s classes at Arlington. Bonnie is going to come over Saturday for a kitting day. I just need to kit for the rest of the year so that I don’t have to worry about it the night before again until next year. I am still deciding if I will still be teaching up there in 2010, lots of issues this year and money lost so I need to rethink this a little. I do love the students and we do have good numbers most of the time. It is hard but when it affects the wallet that changes it.
I hope to get the two fruit panels soldered up Tuesday and then frame all four panels Wednesday night at Lorton. Next weekend I am going to take Christmas pieces to Ellipse, along with some panels. The two class panels that were abandoned will hang for sale at Belvoir. Then I need to get going on the pottery shard pendants for Dec 6.
