These days.....

As you know, I am good at Japanese language since I grew up in Japan.

I tend to update my Japanese blog a lot, but not this one...
I think about this a lot, but I just don't update.
I need to do that more often. I know that.....

Anyway, these days what I am doing is....

1. I am thinking about scheduling the summer camp. I will do that, so please wait for those who are planning to come.

2. "SAORI Minnesota" meeting.
I have several people who come to the studio to weave. I hear "I want to make garments".
Dan and I will organize a meeting for "exchanging dress making ideas, show and tell, SAORI news from Japan and here in Minnesota and of course, getting to know each other!".

It will be after Lake Minnetonka Art Studio Tour in the first weekend of May and Shepherd's Harvest that is the following weekend.
So, it will be middle to the end of May.

I will keep you posted.

I am so fortunate to have SAORI people around me a little by little.

I am in!

It has been a while since I found out that I am going to be a part of the show, "Lake Minnetonka Art Tour" this May 1-2.

My friend who is a potter invited me to be her guest artist at her home last year.
It is a juried show and I submitted everything they needed but they turned me down.
My friend told me that one of the reasons why they turned me down was my images I submitted.
I always have "nature" background when I take a picture of my work.
That's not okay for juried shows.

So, this year, she and her husband helped me a lot preparing the images.
They took so much time for my images. Thank you.
AND I AM IN!!

I learned a lot from her submitting a juried show-quality of images.
It is always good to learn something new.
I appreciate so much my friend and husband!

Now, I have been working on the show.

I got so excited when I got an e-mail that I have been selected.
I can't forget that moment.
