Welcome, class!

Please show everyone your knitting projects. As soon as you do, I have rainbow cupcakes for you.

We will be moving on to embroidery today.
Quick lecture on important tips before you start

Homework for Tuesday: Using your new skills, make a piece that highlights one of your favorite quotes or sayings! You can work on your piece in class, but try to keep your quote a surprise for next week. I have almost every color of floss for you to use as you see fit.

Paige shows her a picture of the dress (http://www.thedarkangel.co.uk/catalogue2.php?p=169) "I was thinking something up, maybe with curly bits hanging down, but I just can't get the height" she frowns

"Two words, well, really three. Pain, and hair spray. Pull it tight and brush it up from underneath, and then spray it down until it doesn't dare move. Use an aerosol, sometimes you just have to say fuck the environment."

Paige nods, "I'll go get extra strength hair spray tomorrow then, thank you."

((as someone who backcombs I can feel the pain already!))

"Spray the curls too, but not as much. You want them to be touchable, and have some bounce."

"Yes I'll remember that thank you."
