Island Recap

Fast and furious, but it went off without a hitch.....Breakfast on the pier in Nanaimo in the morning.



We drove to Comox on the Island Highway and it started to snow, a beautiful chunky wet snow, but it had completed stopped and evaporated by the time we hit our destination.

The Filberg Lodge in commox is a beautiful heritage site. The festival itself is one of the best attented in BC and attracts some of the best artists in Canada....Here are a few pics of the lodge, and surrounding grounds.



The ferry ride home was fairly uneventful, but I did manage to get one design finished on the way home.

This crocheted design was the finest needle size I will ever use (2.5mm), but for the Lorna's Lace which is a gorgeous silk-wool blend it seemed to work.

I was going for something hip and slick for spring and I love the colours.



Enough fun. Time to work on the next selection of jury pieces. I am looking at 10 pieces for my next show application.
