I will be flying to Phoenix, AZ soon for It is a trip from 12°F to 80°F, but I am so excited that I almost forgot to pack a winter Jacket to drive to the airport (90 mile… to the nearest airport. I live out of nowhere). I will be teaching a full-day workshop for 3 days. I probably won’t have time to enjoy the beautiful Quilt Show until Sunday, but I may be walking around after workshops. I will soak myself into the Show on Sunday morning for sure.

I may look kind of “angry” in the first 3 days of Quiltcon, with a serious face & scary look in my eyes. It isn’t that I am in a bad mood. I am just extremely nervous about the workshop. No matter how many times I offer the workshop, every time I feel pressured. It is good. I will stop teaching when I don’t feel nervous before the workshop. Teaching “Cultural Practice” should be like this. I represent many Japanese Sashiko artisans who raised me. I would like to be respectful to both those who wish to take my workshop & those who made me teach Sashiko. I won’t ever take it “easy”.
☆
So, if you are going to be there & find me after 4:30 pm (after workshop), say “Hi” to me . I am a very amature in (Modern) Quilting, and I am so excited to learn the application of the Well-Appreciated tradition of Quilting to Today. I teach Sashiko, and many people I see in QuiltCon are (quilting/textile) teachers to me.

さて、明後日から再度出張です。その為、今週の配信はお休みします。偉そうに「刺し子を英語で」とか語っていますが、普段感じているのは孤独だったりします。特に出張時は乗り込む感じがして不安になったりします。でも、刺し子を続ける中で、沢山の方々とのご縁を頂いて、刺し子の写真を見る度に勇気と元気を頂いています。一人じゃないんです。もう一人で抱えなくても良い。みなさんの思いも乗っけて刺し子を届けてきます！
