welcome march - we had a wonderful snow storm and it disappeared after it came. The sun is strong today and it's warming up a little. I was amazed by the quick response to our custom note cards set - it will take me a few days for me to cut paper and sew envelopes - I should be getting my blade for my stack cutter this week - that should help speed up the process - I wasn't prepared, but I will mail them out as soon as I can. I finally got my clay pieces back - I almost forgot about them - this is what happens when your juggling many things and hoping you don't drop anything. john was up so late last night completing his Canada Council for the Arts application. I finished mine earlier in the week - I get too stressed when I work so close to the deadline. The next grant applications are the Ontario Craft council awards and Toronto Arts council grant.

cleaning and organizing

it's been a busy week - we've been working on getting orders out particularly the flock mobile. We are both busy with wholesale and consignment orders. I need to work on new sculptural work - there is a possibility that my sculptural work will be at this years S.O.F.A. in Chicago. I will tell you more about it as it develops. I also NEED to work on my piece for the OCAD faculty exhibition at the Ontario Craft Council Gallery in late August entitled "Cirrostratus".

hello vancouver friends - I hope you can visit me at the circle craft show

a special thanks to the ontario arts council
