Shaw: Mrs. Warren's Profession Essay, Research Paper
MRS. WARREN'S PROFESSIONMRS. WARREN is engaged in a profession which has existed through all the ages. It was at home in Egypt, played an important role in Greece and Rome, formed one of the influential guilds in the Middle Ages, and has been one of the main sources of income for the Christian Church.But it was left to modern times to make of Mrs. Warren's profession a tremendous social factor, ministering to the needs of man in every station of life, from the brownstone mansion to the hovel, from the highest official to the poorest drag.Time was when the Mrs. Warrens were looked upon as possessed by the devil,-lewd, depraved creatures who would not, even if they had the choice, engage in any other profession, because they are vicious at heart, and should therefore be held up to condemnation and obloquy. And while we continue to drive them from pillar to post, while we still punish them as criminals and deny them the simplest humanities one gives even to the dumb beast, the light turned on this subject by men like George Bernard Shaw has helped to expose the lie of inherent evil tendencies and natural depravity. Instead we learn:Mrs. Warren. Do you think I did what I did be cause I liked it, or thought it right, or wouldn't rather have gone to college and been a lady if I'd had the chance? . . . Oh, it's easy to talk, very easy, isn't it? Here!– Would you like to know what my circumstances were? D'you know what your gran' mother was? No, you don't. I do. She called herself a widow and had a fried-fish shop down by the Mint, and kept herself and four daughters out of it. Two of us were sisters: that was me and Liz; and we were both good looking and well made. I suppose our father was a well fedman: mother pretended he was a gentleman; but I don't know. The other two were only half sisters-under sized, ugly, starved, hard working, honest poor creatures: Liz and I would have half murdered them if mother hadn't half murdered us to keep our hands off them. They were the respectable ones. Well, what did they get by their respectability? I'll tell you. One of them worked in a whitelead factory twelve hours a day for nine shillings a week until she died of lead poisoning. She only expected to get her hands a little paralyzed; but she died. The other was always held up to us as a model because she married a Government laborer in the Deptford victualling yard, and kept his room and the three children neat and tidy on eighteen shillings a week–until he took to drink. That was worth being respectable for, wasn't it? Vivie. Did you and your sister think so?Mrs. Warren. Liz didn't, I can tell you; she had more spirit. We both went to a Church School–that was part of the lady-like airs we gave ourselves to be superior to the children that knew nothing and went no where–and we stayed there until Liz went out one night and never came back. I knew the schoolmistress thought I'd soon follow her example; for the clergyman was always warning me that Lizzie 'd end by jumping off Waterloo Bridge. Poor fool: that was all that he knew about it! But I was more afraid of the whitelead factory than I was of the river; and so would you have been in my place. That clergyman got me a situation as a scullery maid in a temperance restaurant where they sent out for anything you liked. Then I was waitress; and then I went to the bar at Waterloo Station-fourteen hours a day seeing drinks and washing glasses for four shillings a week and my board. That was considered a great promotion for me. Well, one cold, wretched night, when I was so tired I could hardly keep myself awake, who should come up for a half of Scotch but Lizzie, in a long fur cloak, elegant and comfortable, with a lot of sovereigns in her purse.Vivie. My aunt Lizzie ?Mrs. Warren. Yes…. She's living down at Winchester, now, dose to the cathedral, one of the most respectable ladies there–chaperones girls at the country ball, if you please. No river for Liz, thank you! You remind me of Liz a little: she was a first-rate business woman–saved money from the beginning–never let herself look too like what she was–never lost her head or threw away a chance. When she saw I'd grown up good-looking she said to me across the bar: "What are you doing there, you little fool ? Wearing out your health and your appearance for other people's profit!" Liz was saving money then to take a house for herself in Brussels: and she thought we two could save faster than one. So she lent me some money and gave me a start; and I saved steadily and first paid her back, and then went into business with her as her partner. Why shouldn't I have done it? The house in Brussels was real high class–a much better place for a woman to be in than the factory where Anne Jane got poisoned. None of our girls were ever treated as I was treated in the scullery of that temperance place, or at the Waterloo bar, or at home. Would you have had me stay in them and become a worn-out old drudge before I was forty? . . . Yes, saving money. But where can a woman get the money to save in any other business? Could you save out of four shillings a week and keep yourself dressed as well? Not you. Of course, if you're a plain woman and can't earn anything more: or if you have a turn for music, or the stage, or newspaper writing: that's different. But neither Liz nor I had any turn for such things: all we had was our appearance and our turn for pleasing men. Do you think we were such fools as to let other people trade in our good looks by employing us as shop-girls, or barmaids, or waitresses, when we could trade in them ourselves and get all the profits instead of starvation wages? Not likely…. Everybody dislikes having to work and make money; but they have to do it all the same. I'm sure I've often pitied a poor girl, tired out and in low spirits, having to try to please some man that she doesn't care two straws for–some half-drunken fool that thinks he's making himself agreeable when he's teasing and worrying and disgusting a woman so that hardly any money could pay her for putting up with it. But she has to bear with disagreeables and take the rough with the smooth, just like a nurse in a hospital or anyone else. It's not work that any woman would do for pleasure, goodness knows; though to hear the pious people talk you would suppose it was a bed of roses. Of course it's worth while to a poor girl, if she can resist temptation and is good looking and well-conducted and sensible It's far better than any other employment open to her. I always thought that oughtn't to be. It can't be right, Vivie, that there shouldn't be better opportunities for women. I stick to that: It's wrong. But it's so, right or wrong; and a girl must make the best of it. But, of course, it's not worth while for a lady. If you took to it you'd be a fool; but I should have been a fool if I'd taken to anything else…. Why am I independent and able to give my daughter a first-rate education, when other women that had just as good opportunities are in the gutter? Because I always knew how to respect myself and control myself. Why is Liz looked up to in a cathedral town? The same reason. Where would we be now if we'd minded the clergyman's foolishness? Scrubbing floors for one and sixpence a day and nothing to look forard to but the workhouse infirmary. Don't you be led astray by people who don't know the world, my girt The only way for a woman to provide for herself decently is for her to be good to some man that can afford to be good to her. If she's in his own station of life, let her make him marry her; but if she's far beneath him, she can't expect it–why should she? It wouldn't be for her own happiness. Ask any lady in London society that has daughters; and she'll tell you the same, except that I tell you straight and she'll tell you crooked. That's all the difference…. It's only good manners to be ashamed of it; it's expected from a woman. Women have to pretend a great deal that they don't feel. Liz used to be angry with me for plumping out the truth about it. She used to say that when every woman would learn enough from what was going on in the world before her eyes, there was no need to talk about it to her. But then Liz was such a perfect lady! She had the true instinct of it; while I was always a bit of a vulgarian. I used to be so pleased when you sent me your photographs to see that you were growing up like Liz; you've just her lady-like determined way. But I can't stand saying one thing when everyone knows I mean another. What's the use in such hypocrisy? If people arrange the world that way for women, there's no use pretending that it's arranged the other way. I never was a bit ashamed really. I consider that I had a right to be proud that we managed everything so respectably, and never had a word against us, and that the girls were so well taken care of. Some of them did very well: one of them married an ambassador. But of course now I daren't talk about such things: whatever would they think of us.No, it is not respectable to talk about these things, because respectability cannot face the truth. Yet everybody knows that the majority of women, "if they wish to provide for themselves decently must be good to some man that can afford to be good to them." The only difference then between Sister Liz, the respectable girl, and Mrs. Warren, is hypocrisy and legal sanction. Sister Liz uses her money to buy back her reputation from the Church and Society. The respectable girl uses the sanction of the Church to buy a decent income legitimately, and Mrs. Warren plays her game without the sanction of either. Hence she is the greatest criminal in the eyes of the world. Yet Mrs. Warren is no less human than most other women. In fact, as far as her love for her daughter Vivian is concerned, she is a superior sort of mother. That her daughter may not have to face the same alternative as she, — slave in a scullery for four shillings a week — Mrs. Warren surrounds the girl with comfort and ease, gives her an education, and thereby establishes between her child and herself an abyss which nothing can bridge. Few respectable mothers would do as much for their daughters. However, Mrs. Warren remains the outcast, while all those who benefit by her profession, including even her daughter Vivian, move in the best circles.Sir John Crofts, Mrs. Warren's business partner, who has invested 40,000 pounds in Mrs. Warren's house, drawing an income of 35 percent. out of it in the worst years, is a recognized pillar of society and an honored member of his class. Why not!Crofts. The fact is, it's not what would be considered exactly a high-class business in my set–the county set, you know…. Not that there is any mystery about it: don't think that. Of course you know by your mother's being in it that it's perfectly straight and honest. I've known her for many years; and I can say of her that she'd cut off her hands sooner than touch anything that was not what it ought to be…. But you see you can't mention such things in society. Once let out the word hotel and everybody says you keep a public-house. You wouldn't like people to say that of your mother, would you? That's why we're so reserved about it…. Don't turn up your nose at business, Miss Vivie: where would your Newnhams and Girtons be without it? . . . You wouldn't refuse the acquaintance of my mother's cousin, the Duke of Belgravia, because some of the rents he gets are earned in queer ways. You wouldn't cut the Archbishop of Canterbury, I suppose, because the Ecclesiastical Commissioners have a few publicans and sinners among their tenants? Do you remember your Crofts scholarship at Newnham? Well, that was founded by my brother the M.P. He gets his 22 per cent. out of a factory with 600 girls in it, and not one of them getting wages enough to live on. How d' ye suppose most of them manage? Ask your mother. And do you expect me to turn my back on 35 per cent. when all the rest are pocketing what they can, like sensible men? No such fool! If you're going to pick and choose your acquaintances on moral principles, you'd better clear out of this country, unless you want to cut yourself out of all decent society…. The world isn't such a bad place as the croakers make out. So long as you don't fly openly in the face of society, society doesn't ask any inconvenient questions; and it makes precious short work of the cads who do. There are no secrets better kept than the secrets that everybody guesses. In the society I can introduce you to, no lady or gentleman would so far forget themselves as to discuss my business affairs or your mother's.Indeed, no lady or gentleman would discuss the profession of Mrs. Warren and her confreres. But they partake of the dividends. When the. evil becomes too crying, they engage in vice crusades, and call down the wrath of the Lord and the brutality of the police upon the Mrs. Warrens and her victims. While the victimizers, the Crofts, the Canterburys, Rev. Gardner–Vivian's own father and pious mouthpiece of the Church–and the other patrons of Mrs. Warren's houses parade as the protectors of woman, the home and the family.To-day no one of the least intelligence denies the cruelty, the injustice, the outrage of such a state of affairs, any more than it is being denied that the training of woman as a sex commodity has left her any other source of income except to sell herself to one man within marriage or to many men outside of marriage. Only bigots and inexperienced girls like Vivian can say that "everybody has some choice. The poorest girl alive may not be able to choose between being Queen of England or Principal of Newnham; but she can choose between rag-picking and flower-selling, according to her taste."It is astonishing how little education and college degrees teach people. Had Vivian compelled to shift for herself, she would have discovered that neither rag-picking nor flower-selling brings enough to satisfy one's "taste." It is not a question of choice, but of necessity, which is the determining factor in most people's lives.When Shaw flung Mrs. Warren into the smug midst of society, even the educated Vivians knew little of the compelling force which whips thousands of women into prostitution. As to the ignorant, their minds are a mental and spiritual desert. Naturally the play caused consternation. It still continues to serve as the red rag to the social bull. "Mrs. Warren's Profession" infuriates because it goes to the bottom of our evils; because it places the accusing finger upon the sorest and most damnable spot in our social fabric–SEX as woman's only commodity in the competitive market of life. "An immoral and heretical play," indeed, of very deep social sign significance.

In the end, we are not going to survive the rest of our lives. Sooner or later we will understand the fates that have befallen the ones before us. How will it all feel? What is that final thought before one passes on? Is it filled with euphoria or regret or a longing for more? Does an angel come down to lift you from this earth and transport you to a heavenly world of ever-knowing bliss? Or is it just done? A big awkward piece of nothingness. Maybe it's something beyond nothing? A void so deep you wonder how many universes could occupy that space? So many questions run through Bob's mind about the end. Especially that part, right before the end. In all fairness, would one not wonder why Bob wouldn't ponder these things? After all, he has been there, in the end, with so many people. Been there to shepherd them along to their voids or bliss. Sometimes they are ready and willing to go, with what seems like a calm acceptance. An acceptance that this has been a long time coming. Sometimes it's a kicking, screaming, drawn-out ordeal. One last fleeting moment to belong more to this world than the next. Sometimes they are oblivious to the events that will soon unfold. Ignorance is usually the best for them but the worst for Bob. There is just a slight dissatisfaction for him when he is not more intimately involved. Is it different for each one, the end? Does it matter how they go? In a blaze of glory with guns blasting or in their sleep after the toxins complete their appointed task and they just drift away?
Where does it all go? The laughs, the voice, the tears, the sweat, the electrical charges? This was the specific question Bob was asking himself as he looked at the Sheriff. Such a familiar man but evidently, he held a great secret. He thought about where it all goes after every one of them had moved on. Will I remember what it's like when I am at the end? He asked himself. Will I carry it with me? A small explainable fear in my next life as a dog or a bird or a banker? This will occupy Bob for a short bit, but the sun is coming up, and the fresh snow will be turning to slush. The drive will be slower than usual and the day is already so full of appointments and other problems to solve. His younger self-reminds him of how the old woman is not fond of tardiness. Again, life has gotten in the way of answering all these questions. After all, the day is young, and there just might be another opportunity to ponder these thoughts later today.
Spring on the front range of Colorado can be a very fickle time of year. Warm summer-like days can give way to sudden snowstorms in a matter of hours. Storms can drop 6 to 12 inches of snow on the afternoon commuters, alone. This type of storm just so happened to hit the Denver area the previous night. The morning's bluebird sky was allowing the sun to come up early and it was all too happy to expose the poor driving skills of the average 9-to-5er. The windy commuter road heading west out of the city through the foothills of the Rocky Mountains is now littered with abandon vehicles. Some are set purposefully in a neatly parked manner as if to suggest someone just needed to go on a little hike. They would soon be returning after their short adventure. Some cars didn't have such diligent foresight. They seemed to be matchbox cars placed by a young child while playing crash up.
Bob was always fascinated how every Spring this happened, often more than once. His turbocharged black Subaru wagon with rally suspension, aftermarket muffler and tinted windows moved smoothly up 285 towards the town of Fairplay. His car, complete with a large Tule cargo box and bike racks screamed mid-thirties, Colorado, urban dwelling X Games wannabe. He was very comfortable with this connotation, and it was exactly what he wanted everyone to think. Plus, the all-wheel-drive made it very practical for the mountains and uncertain conditions of Colorado. With the sun steadily pushing he moved up into the mountains as the commuters slowly made their way back down to Denver or their misplaced vehicles.
The roads were starting to get a bit slushy and with it a bit slicker. There is a short space between the set up cold packed snow from the night and the melted wetness of the mid-morning. This space is held for inconsistency. An east-facing stretch might be sloppy but grippy just before you dive into a shady corner. These areas contain all the surprising fun of black ice, packed snow, a slow-moving delivery truck, or in this case, a well-dressed stocky man in loafers trying to thumb down a ride. Now, people trying to get a ride in Colorado is familiar enough. The state is somewhat known for being hitchhiker-friendly. What was odd was the specific location, which would be as close to nowhere as one could get, and his attire. Dressed for a day at the office rather than a snowy morning is what got Bob's attention. No winter jacket, gloves, or hat. He figured the man was most likely stranded from the night before and needed a ride to a service station or such. Bob found himself pulling over despite the fact he had business to get to and not a whole lot of time. A small voice reminded him, the old woman will not be happy if you are late, young man.
The man came gingerly through the softening snow in his not-so-sensible shoes. Opening the passenger door and upon seeing the cleanliness of the car, he started to take off his shoes before getting in. Bob was a bit amused by this but also found the gesture quite endearing. This seemingly stranded man was so respectful that he would remove his shoes, not to get Bob's insanely clean car the least bit dirty. He found this amusing because where exactly, would the man then put the shoes? On his lap? This image made Bob grin, and he was suddenly pleased he had picked up this odd situation.
"Never mind that," said Bob "Just hop on in."
"Ok then, mate." said the man in an accent that was not British yet not from Down Under either.
Bob noticed that the suit and such was not nearly as nice as it had seemed, as he was cruising by at 55 MPH. It had the air of a man trying to appear more important than he was, without much success. The man introduced himself as John. He was a round, heavyset fellow with an ashen, round face. He had nicely combed over ginger hair and an earnest broad smile. He didn't fit in the narrow, bucket seats so well, so he sat at a slight angle towards Bob.
"Did you get stranded out in the storm?" Bob asked. "I can drop you at the next gas station." Bob pulled back out on to the road and the aftermarket exhaust brapped as he paddle shifted through the gears.
"Not quite, my man. I was dropped off back there around six this morning and have been trying to wave down a ride ever since." He said this in a very matter of fact tone as if being dropped off on a random bit of mountain road, early on a cold, snowy morning, was very much a typical day for him.
Bob could not help but bite. "So, why exactly were you dropped off in that spot?"
"Ah, yes. That is where my church is and my first ride on this day's pilgrimage was from the beautiful pastor, Joshua."
Church? Bob was now getting a bit skeptical because this is his road. 285 has been as constant in his life as the seasons themselves. Between Denver and South Park is his family's territory. It is their land, his land. Generations of it. There is no church along that stretch of road, not that Bob has ever been aware of, but now something was coming to him. A white cross on an old tree stump. It could not have been more than three feet high. He now sees in his mind's eye that beside that cross is a draw up between the rocky walls and pines. That is but a small trail at best and leading up to nothing but steep mountainsides and rocky cliffs. What exactly was this man, John, getting on about? Here we go again with the questions he thinks, always questions. Since he was a child, he drove his father crazy with questions. This thought took Bob to an unsure moment.
"You OK there, my man?" asked John. "You suddenly got a bit sullen."
Bob ignored the attentiveness of his passenger. "Church, huh? never knew of a church in those parts," said more as a statement than as an inquiry. Starting to feel a bit restless he asked exactly where the day's "pilgrimage" was taking him.
"Today, it's Fairplay." After a slight pause, John turned to Bob and asked, "Just how far is that from here anyway?"
Now Bob was all in. This guy, from a foreign country, is hitchhiking to an unknown location, in a dime store suit, on a cold, snowy late March morning. After the events of the past few days, this was just what he needed. Someone with a life that could very well be just as whacked out as Bob's is right now. What was Bob saying? As if his life has ever been normal. Oh yeah, straight out of a Norman Rockwell, it's all been.
Chuckling a bit, Bob said, "About an hour from here and you are in luck I am heading right through there."
"Splendid! The receivers of the Lord's prayers will be mightily comforted this day."
Bob just shook his head, grinned to himself and downshifted. With a backfire the Subaru blasted forward.

The Fastest Moda Trip
At the start of this week we went on a road trip. Cindy (mom), Tracy, Misty and myself piled in a Honda Pilot and set off towards Dallas. We drove late Sunday night after the shop closed. We laughed more than humanly possible, ate yummy food, and arrived at the hotel without any limbs lost. There were moments when we were all too tired. By moments, I really mean 4 solid hours of laughter, yawns, and too many snacks. Shhh! If you ask me how much snack food I consumed in the car, I will not give a straight answer.
Nevertheless, we made it to Dallas late Sunday night, just to wake up EARLY Monday morning to drive to the Moda Warehouse. Hello sweet mother-load of fabric! The amount of fabric shoved into this warehouse is incredible!
Once we arrived at Moda, we grabbed our cart, and stormed off. Okay we didn't really storm; it was more like we all scattered, each going in a different direction. I had control of the cart. Someone had to monitor everything we were going to buy. 😉
This wasn't our first rodeo, so we had learned the layout and what a trip to Moda Warehouse looked like. We knew we wanted the big cart and how they had the fabric organized.
I wanted Grunge. I focused there and just started grabbing off the shelf. It looked unorganized, but I knew the colors we had (thanks to pictures on our phones) and I was trying to fill in colors we needed plus restock our low inventory. Everything else we looked at was for restock or something we had seen and had an interest in. Many aisles I avoided, skipped, and just couldn't focus long enough to walk down.
Moda Warehouse can be overwhelming. It is extremely tempting to grab one of each fabric and walk out with a Semi Truck FULL of fabric. Remember, we only had a Honda Pilot to fill. A Honda Pilot that also had four ladies and was making a trip to IKEA after Moda… Our space was limited.
We have added precuts, Grunge, Christmas and Halloween fabric. We also added patterns, notions, and much more! You will have to stop by the shop, or jump online to see what is new.
After Moda Warehouse we jumped in the car and drove off to IKEA. We can't ever make a trip to Dallas without a quick stop at IKEA. Many of the shelves at the shop are from IKEA, along with quite a few repurposed items. For example, a TV cabinet holds our Minky, "trash cans" are spotted throughout the shop full of fabric, large planters, tables, garden trellises, and floating shelves are also stuffed with fabric around the shop. I love walking through IKEA trying to figure out new uses for different items.
After reorganizing our car to fit everything we found, we were off. Take two seconds to imagine four ladies pulling too many bolts to count out of the car, just to fill it FULL… again! I'm sure it was a sight to see… hopefully no one videoed that mess.
We made it back safely, and the new fabric is out on the floor. It was a quick 24 hour round trip, but worth every minute.
See you at the machine (with new fabric),
It is Tuesday! We are ONE DAY AWAY from our biggest challenge, change, project QH has ever tried to tackle. There will be mistakes, we will still be crawling along, learning as we go, but the end result should be amazing.
Tomorrow, you will have to check out our NEW website!
The class calendar, in my opinion, is much easier to operate, and you can even sign up for classes. You might just have to give us a few moments to get everything set up.
We are still working to get everything set up: every bolt of fabric, notion, ruler, etc had to be re-input. That part has been gross!
I miss my sewing machine. Millie, our longarm quilting machine, has been putting in long hours, but that is the only machine that has really seen any operating time. I miss it.
I've received two spectacular machines recently, and they are begging to be used. Soon. I keep telling myself that it will happen soon. When it does, you bet I'll be sharing with you. TWO MACHINES! You will be meeting them soon.
Until then, I'll be looking through photos on my phone and trying to share some of our older quilts that we have quilted.
See you at the machine,
Moving, Changing, Growing
It has been awhile since a blog made a presence. I blame… life. Every time you think things are about to level out, something else comes up. I think there will just always be something. Recently, I was in a good friends wedding the weekend before we were supposed to be selling our house and buying another house which all was happening about a week before a huge program change at Quilter's Hideaway. I've always said I would rather be busy than bored… 🙂
A couple Friday's ago, when we were about to leave for my friend's Rehearsal Dinner, Dalton and I received word that our seller was still lacking some paperwork and our move was postponed. I think it probably worked out for the better looking back. I was able to spend more time at Quilter's Hideaway working on Millie and preparing for our biggest challenge yet—changing to a new point of sale system. We were also able to rest up more following the wedding before moving.
Our move ended up being postponed one week, two weeks before we are/were to go live with our new system. The move happened fairly uneventfully and we are now full focus on our new system.
Side note: This move symbolized so much! We were sad to leave behind certain things at our old house—a shed my brother-in-laws, father-in-law, and husband built, our "first" house as a married couple, the place we introduced our youngest puppy to our family. However, this move meant that QH was successful! (AMAZING) It meant that it was time to move closer to the shop and shorten my over-an-hour drive to work every day. All our hard work was paying off, and I could not be more thankful for YOUR support.
If you have entered the shop in the last week, you noticed it was a little chaotic.
When we opened the shop our goal was to merely open. The details were all slightly foggy. We were learning as we went and the Point Of Sale system we started with wasn't handling our growth well. There were components of it that I loved, but mostly it was a pain. We have been blessed with incredible growth, and with that, we are going through a few growing pains.
We made the decision to change our Point of Sale system, which also means we are changing our website, newsletter process, and so much more. It is exciting. It is nerve-wracking. It is a learning experience. It might be a little stressful.
I have had more than one bowl of ice cream this past week; whatever it takes, right?
To say I am excited for this new system is an understatement. Do I like this conversion process? Absolutely not. Is the timing a little iffy? You bet. But I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. I also feel like it is time to make a change now, while we are still young. We just celebrated our 1.5 birthday, after all.
Stick around. The next few weeks are going to be pretty awesome. I might have an ice cream party at my new house if we all make it through this.
See you at the machine,
What's In a Name?
Happy 2018! It is a new year, and we have so many things on the agenda for the shop. I'm not a huge New Years Resolution person, but I am really hoping to find time to blog more this year.
With that said, I am also helping to continue learning more on Millie, and I started early learning new things this year. On Christmas Eve/Day, I quilted a custom quilt for my Brother-in-Law. Somehow, my two brother-in-laws have been able to convince me to only quilt custom for them. It has always been a large learning curve. Each time, I have learned new things, and thankfully the quilts always turn out great!
This particular quilt was a gift for the man officiating his wedding. The family's last name starts with a G and they have three kids: Ellyn Beth, Jax Joseph, and Jones Dean. I promise we checked the spelling multiple times during this process, but it still made me nervous.
Devin, my brother-in-law, had the idea to quilt all of the childrens' names into the quilt. It sounds easy, doesn't it? Well… I couldn't find an easy way to do it without a ton of jumps between every letter (A jump is when Millie stops sewing in one spot and moves to another spot. It leaves a stretch of loose thread that needs trimmed.), so I improvised. I spent quite a lot of time in PatternCad, a program in QuiltPath that allows a pattern to be "drawn".
I grumbled quite often while "drawing" this pattern, but I love how it turned out. Now I want to do a similar quilt for my grandmother with all of the grandchildren's names, but the idea of creating patterns for all of those names makes me worried.

A Leap of Faith
It's been awhile. And by awhile, I mean way too long. I've been working full time plus helping at the shop too many hours to count. This isn't a pity-party, but a party because that has all changed now!
I'm still at the shop too many hours to count, but that full time job is no longer on the table. I've taken a leap of faith, and I'm trying to follow a dream. (Or something like that….)
My husband has decided that I am a "Professional Quilter; Occupation: Quilter." He made that declaration as I walked in the door one week ago after my last day training my replacement at the full time office job. I think he was under the impression that I won't need to add to my personal fabric stash, now that I'm around fabric all day. He has no idea.. 🙂
Now that I'm at the shop, and supposedly have free time (I still haven't seen any or that), we are going to start working of a few fun things we've been planning. We are also gearing up to announce our next few months of classes. So far, our classes have been successful, fun, and energetic, so we want to keep that going.
Do you have any fun ideas that you would like to see added?
I did manage to finish this quilt last week, so I will leave you with this picture.

Sew Nights and Design Walls
When my mom and I made the decision to open Quilter's Hideaway, we knew we wanted a way to bring people together. We immediately knew we wanted some form of a sew night where people with different experience and projects could come together to learn from one another, create a community, and encourage each other throughout their projects.
Our Open Sew Nights every Thursday, have slowly molded into this. Although I cannot be at every one (I'm still working fulltime in Tulsa), I receive pictures, and it makes me want to be there every week.
There have been many finished projects throughout our short, two months of being open, many newbies have learned tricks, and friendships have been made around our tables. I've learned more about embroidery and so many other things, I've seen others teaching how to chain-piece, everyone has a home at Quilter's Hideaway.
The other thing I love about sew night, is that our design wall is always covered in so many different quilts as people work to find a layout they are happy with. Occasionally I'll even get FaceTime to give my opinion, or someone will leave a quilt up for a few days to play with until they are happy. My favorite saying when a quilt is on the wall is, "Can I play?" Everyone sees quilts so differently, and I love this.
Everyone has been on a log cabin "kick" recently using our new rulers and upcoming class, but every single quilt has been vastly different. Other than the actual block, the quilts are unrecognizable as the same pattern.
If you are on the fence, or want to surround yourself with funny, encouraging, helpful people, think about coming to our next Open Sew Night. It happens every Thursday. Come when you're free and stay until the seam rippers come out. Usually the crowd starts forming after 4pm and we shut the party down between 8:30 and 9.
I've seen knitting, embroidery, paper piecing, chatting, quilt layout, laughing, pressing, and so much more happening during our Open Sew nights.

Social Media: the newest wave of internet marketing genius. If you need a new way to market your business, or perhaps you've been hearing a lot about these sites for businesses and you'd like an idea of how to go about it, then this article is for you. It will walk you through ways to use these sites to advertise your business, company or product.
Post new blog entries at least four or five times a week. A blog is a great place to get the word out about promotions and events. Even if you simply changed something simple like your store hours or new location. – don't forget to add them to your blog.
Always remain positive when marketing via social media. People like to be around others and things that make them feel good. Bad mouthing others or making negative statements can lead to others viewing your product or service negatively. Be sure to keep this in mind on your personal page as well if you have one.
How to sell thorough internet
Use Twitter in your social media marketing. Make sure your tweets are varied and content rich. Send out tweets with advice and insights relevant to your niche. Your followers will stay interested if they can learn something from your tweets.
Figure out how much you want to engage with your customers. If increasing sales is your sole motivation, stick to the basics when using social media as a marketing method. If you want to get on a level with your customers that requires back and forth, start off simple and just say "Hello." You'll be lead by your customers from there.
Never spam when posting on social media. Posting spam is the quickest way to lose followers and damage you and you companies reputation. Spam posts on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media sites make any legitimate marketing difficult. If your posts are just a few words and a link to a product, you are posting spam. Give relevant content or reviews along with any links you post.
Your headline is crucial to a good post. Most social networks encourage you to keep your posts short, and if you were to post a long article, chances are no one would take the time to read it. Try posting a link to your article with a good headline that both grabs your readers' attention and explain what the article is about.
You can actually set up automatic tweets that go out at a specific time you set it to be tweeted. You can also choose several bloggers that have good content and put up links to what they write. The people who follow you will appreciate your efforts to bring them content they enjoy, and the bloggers you choose certainly won't mind the increased exposure.
You should create a Youtube channel to post reviews of your products and other videos relevant to your industry. You can set up your account so that your videos are posted right away on certain social networks. This will save you time and prevent you from forgetting to update a site.
Your social profiles should be used as a gateway that gets subscribed followers to buy your services and products. You should use your profiles to let people know about discounts you're doing, or new locations you're opening up. Let them print your coupons and allow them access to your limited offers that are only reserved for your Facebook friends. You want people to be interested in adding your Facebook profile.
Internet Marketing for small business
Be wary of hiring a social media marketing company. There are a lot of social media marketing scam artists out there who prey on inexperienced business website owners. These companies use proxy servers and registration bots to create thousands of accounts on Twitter, YouTube and Facebook. Your ads will be seen by their fake accounts to ramp up the numbers, while you get no profit from your investment.
There are a ton of different ways you can use these sites to move your company forward. This article has shown you some of the best ways to get yourself set up and start using the features these sites offer, but you will want to keep researching and learning as they change and grow.

Mayor Jim Gray and Fayette-Urban county councilmembers joined the owners and employees of the Blue Grass Stockyards to cut the ribbon for the official opening of the organization's new facility.
"This is a proud day in our city," Gray said. "This $600-million-a-year business, with deep roots in our agricultural economy, is back, and will be open for business on Monday in a facility that sets new standards for the industry."
The 232,000-square-foot facility, located off I-75 near the Kentucky Horse Park, includes 40,000 square feet of office and retail space. A regional marketplace on site features more than 20 businesses, including broker Bromagen Commodities, local meat market The Chop Shop, a restaurant, a clothing store, an exhibit space and other services targeted to serve its cattle-farming clientele.
"It has been a dream of Gene Barber's for 20 years to have a one-stop shop for our customers. It is designed around the ease of our customers," said Jim Akers, chief operating officer for the Bluegrass Stockyards.
Gene Barber and his brother, Larry, are second-generation owners of Blue Grass Stockyards,
along with additional partners Eric Barber, Scott Bucher, Austin Paul, David Holt, Jim Dause, Brian Horn and Johnny Lakes. The new $12 million facility replaces the Stockyards' former home, which was destroyed by fire in January 2016.
Mayor Gray emphasized the importance of the Stockyards to the local economy.
"Blue Grass Stockyards is to cattle what Keeneland is to Thoroughbreds," Gray said. "It is the biggest cattle market group east of the Mississippi River. Because of its sales volume, it effectively sets the cattle price structure for the entire Eastern United States."
In 2015, approximately 106,000 animals were sold at the Lexington market, and an additional 50,000 were sold online out of the Stockyards offices in Lexington. Farmers were paid approximately $200 million for that livestock. Altogether, at its seven locations in Kentucky and through online sales, the market sells approximately $600 million in cattle each year.

as well as kept safe when on duty. For these things
he is loved throughout the rank and file of his organization.
The newspapers not long ago reported that
he had summarily discharged several hundred employees
of all grades for violation of his orders to abstain
from alcoholic drinks, both on and off duty. Evidently
he can, when necessary, make himself feared also. He
is, in fact, respected, loved, and feared.
These three things, respect, love, and fear, a superior
must win from his subordinates if he is to be in
the highest degree successful. Many men command
others with considerable success, while comparatively
few are loved; but no one ever attained supreme distinction
as a leader and commander of men who did
not make himself loved as well as feared and respected.
57. Eeferring again to the analysis of Foster's statement
of the Chain of Command, we have still to consider
the subordinate commanders and privates.
As to the former, each one is a chief to those below
him, and we can therefore transfer what has been said
above about the chief down successive grades and apply
it to successive subordinate commanders in turn.
As to all the subordinates, there is another matter of
supreme importance—team work. Under Ideals (Article
28) and under Personnel (Article 36) I quoted
from military writers on this subject. Another quotation
from Knox is here in point. With particular reference
to the Navy, he says:
To exercise their command function properly the ofiScer
corps as a hody must act unitedly. As a preparation to do
this they must be educated in the art of war and trained
in its conduct. They must be loyal to their Commander-in-
Chief and his plans, and must possess a deep understanding
of the mind of their common chief and of each other.

Architects / Engineers: The "Coastal Highway Route 39" Mega-project in Norway creates bridges and tunnels with innovative technological solutions
The route runs from Kristiansand in the south to Trondheim in the north, and is approximately 1100 km long. The route runs through six counties, and the cities of Stavanger, Bergen, Ålesund and Molde. Travel time today is around 21 hours, and road users need to use seven different ferry connections. The aim is to create an improved E39 without ferries, which will reduce travel time by half. The route will be almost 50 kilometres shorter.

Kris Baha's life has been saturated in sound from a very early age. The Italian-Armenian born, Australian-raised DJ, producer and sound engineer, who now resides in Berlin, spent his early teens in a covers band, trialled his first CDJ at the age of 14 before going on to learn guitar, piano and percussion.
Fast forward ten years and his musical feats have grown in abundance. At the helm of Power Station – a label which stemmed out of a weekly club night that he used to run in his home of Melbourne – he favours quality over quantity, only releasing music that excites him. The imprint has been home to some of Kris' own productions which lean towards EBM and industrial, a genre that penetrated Kris' teenage years but that he admits he couldn't quite comprehend until later in life. Since his first PS release he's been making the rounds, landing on labels like Bahnsteig 23, Cocktail d'Amore and most recently Rotterdam's Pinkman.
We chat to him about his teenage love for Rammstein, keeping that 'live' feel and how he tries to laugh at least once before every studio session. This sits alongside a mix of 100% original material.
Ok, strap in. My earliest musical memory was age 12 or 13 and being utterly obsessed with German band Rammstein. How obsessed? Forming a cover band with two other friends who also shared this weird obsession and dying my hair silver as they did in their 1998 Berlin concert. We rehearsed every Wednesday during lunch and after school and finally got to preform our covers at the school assembly – all sung in German. I was on keys and vocals. As you have probably figured out by now, we were very popular kids…
This was the gateway to being able to delve deeper into acts like Throbbing Gristle, NIN and also into more darker tones of music, as well as a genre called 'industrial music', which I could not comprehend or fully grasp at the time, due to my age, until much later on. As most phases you go through I explored all kinds of music – synth pop, wave, indie, rock and electronic music right through to classical guitar and acid jazz.
Whilst all this was going on I was lucky enough to be brought up by my dads interest in the current dance music of the time – 2001 onwards – which he collected for his work as a director/ producer of cabaret and theatre shows. At one point he came home with a turntable and one of the first Pioneer CDJ models, a CMX5000, which I messed around with no avail of how one would use it, until I was about 14 and started to make the connection between live electronic music and dance music, in turn learning how to DJ. My brother was also heavily into dance music so we both learned and bought records together.
Have you had any professional musical schooling? What first led you into music production?
I was getting piano lessons during my first year at college, as well as teaching myself guitar, but then I decided to ditch the piano lessons and switch to guitar as my primary instrument which I did my final exam pieces on. I ended up teaching myself piano and keys as well as bass and percussion.
During my early time at college I was making terrible electronic music, including some trance, but mainly with the mindset of trying to juxtapose styles to create new ones. My naive teenager rock guitar phase was one of the main intersections I was constantly at for a while – a postlude symptom to my Rammstein discovery and their fuse of electronic sounds and sequences mixed with direct guitar licks and live or electronic drums. This approach to music was a revelation to me, so I was reading about how to make it possible in a live format through books and limited internet forums at the time, for example how a drummer would be playing along to sequences and a 'click' on stage, pre the era of laptops.
My first piece of equipment was a Roland Mc909 groove box in 2002, before we had laptops at school or a computer powerful enough at home to make music on or download any music software. I was also heavily into music production and sound engineering and went to university for a bachelor in Audio Production after college. But I dropped out as the music project I was in at the time was about to sign to a major label – which I'm glad didn't in the end – so I ended up teaching myself the rest. I stayed in contact with two uni buddies after I'd left and formed a studio collective called Sound Machine Recording Studios which we still run today. We got lucky and stumbled onto some corporate work which allowed us to buy some nice equipment, for me some synthesisers when they were still cheap, and set ourselves up with a proper recording studio at the time. We designed, built it and then worked with local bands and more clients to develop our skill sets. We obviously recorded a lot of our own music projects and bands that we were all in as well.
Can you talk us through how you might construct a track? How much of your material is sample based and how much is original?
For my solo music the only samples I use are drum hits which are generally re-sampled from older drum machines, synthesised drum sounds and some sound collage, avant-garde percussion concerts which are more like noise percussion rather then conventional elements. Everything else is original and I mainly play everything by hand where I can to keep the 'live' feel. It's a cliche but it starts with me noodling on a synth or drum pattern on my Octatrack or Tempest and which ever grabs me first I go from there until it reveals itself. I really try to keep all my projects as separate as possible, mainly the sounds I use, synthesisers, drum machine and effect choices, otherwise I feel the lines become blurred. I guess with each project I'm involved in we really feel we have something else to say that isn't being said with our own music.
Are there any particular rituals you go through before you head into the studio? Do you come in with a destination in mind before starting a jam?
I burn loads of coconut incense and drink two coffees, oh and I try to laugh at least once when I wake up.
Are there any producers or artists who have inspired your productions?
Yes, some producers in my immediate circles are Charles Manier, June, Das Ding, An-i, Tolouse Low Trax and Forces. In my outer circles, artists, bands and producers like Hard Corps, Chris & Cosey, Conny Plank, Dave Friedman, SPK, Severed Heads and Adrian Sherwood.
What kind of stuff do you reach for in your DJ sets? Name three records that are firmly in your bag at the moment?
I'll skip the first question and give you an extra three records I'm playing out a lot.
You run Power Station, a label which was spawned from a weekly club night you ran in Melbourne. We loved the last release from Piska Power. How's the label going? What's on the horizon?
I only put out music that I find interesting and exciting, so I guess it doesn't run like a traditional label outputting as much music as it can to stay active, but that being said we are now distributing from Sound Metaphors here in Berlin, which is just down the road from my apartment and studio. It's a lovely change to be able to go down and speak face to face with Nemo, who runs SM, and nut out our releases, as well as bringing friends down to the shop to give them copies. Next on the release front is an EP from Jensen Interceptor, an EP of new music from Das Ding, a Piska Power LP, a collaboration between Nick Murray and myself, and I'll do another EP on at some stage too.
Release wise, you've had an onslaught of new stuff lately! Some amazing stuff on Pinkman, Bahnsteig 23 and CockTail d'Amore. Could you tell us a bit about what you've got coming up?
I have an album that's almost done which will come out on Cocktail as well as a few cameos. One on Pinkman for the Five Years of Tears Vol 2 – I'm really stoked about being included in the five year celebration of the label. I've got another VA release on Lithuanian club institution, Opium, which is a remix for Jack Pattern, HLM83, Joakim, Inhalt & Juan Ramos, and there are some other bits lined up for later in the year on Neubau & Especial. As Die Orangen we have our remix packs coming out from the LP soon as well as another LP we've have done in collaboration with Jono Ma (Jagwar Ma), and finally there will be a new project release with the talented Niklas Wandt and myself on Themes For Great Cities.
You've been performing live recently, how long have you been working on that? What can we expect from it?
I spent about one month preparing for the first live show at ADE last year but I had already been playing live with Dreems in Die Orangen for a few months prior so it was a pretty easy transition. I've played in various electronic bands since I can remember so I'm pretty used to a 'live' format. Expect the noise of metal pieces being struck.
As you've previously mentioned, alongside Dreems, our first Self-Portrait guest, you produce and perform as Die Orangen. Could you tell us a bit about that dynamic in terms of production? Any releases or shows coming up?
Angus and I have known each other for a long time back in Aus, so when we finally had a chance to freak out in the studio the first result was 'Oodnadatta Rain'. I think what makes our dynamic work is that we both bring something different to this project which we might not be touching on in our own productions. We've become fully aware of what this project is and everything we do is pretty organic, even though we are up for trying new things.
This mix is comprised of 100% original Kris Baha material. Could you tell us a bit about it? Any tracks that are particularly special to you?
I chose a selection of music I have made that could maybe explain a narrative I sometimes use when I DJ or play live.
Anything else on the horizon we should know about?
More plugs? Well then, I'm playing in Europe at the moment. This weekend I'll be playing live at the Mannequin Nacht Party with Trevor Jackson, Alessandro Adriani & JASSS at Säule/Berghain and at Opium Club in Vilnius on Saturday. Next Friday 27th April, you can catch me DJing at Radion in Amsterdam.

Six days later, the Florida native added another one-on-one surge past Costa Rican fullback Keysher Fuller Spence to assist Sebastian Lleget's tally in the second friendly of the team's January camp.
Lewis supporters all nodded their heads and wondered aloud or internally – "Why doesn't he play more for NYCFC?"
"I'm sure this year Jona (Lewis) has more possibility to play with us because he's right now a better player," New York City FC coach Dome Torrent told reporters in a conference call Thursday.
The clamoring of supporters and other outside observers for more frequent sightings of Lewis is based on the third-year winger's output in limited minutes.
In 2018, Lewis had 14 reserve appearances with one goal and three assists in 219 minutes – a goal or assist in every 54 minutes of activity. For his NYCFC career, the 21-year old has averaged a goal or assist every 80 minutes in 25 matches.
Add to that his pair of assists in 44 minutes while earning his first two USMNT caps, and the appeals to Torrent and his staff have become more fervent.
"You've seen it the past two years when he gets his chance he can cause a lot of trouble," teammate Alex Ring told Pro Soccer USA on Thursday.
However, Torrent warned that two positive moments in a reserve role at the international level does not provide assurances with the first team in the Bronx.
"It's not enough to do two amazing actions – it's not enough." Torrent explained. "He was able to assist two amazing goals – I agree – but I expect about him more and more in every single game. Soccer is about what happens when you have the ball but also what happens when you don't have the ball. We need to improve about that."
Torrent and two other prominent figures in the club – sporting director Claudio Reyna and newly-elected captain Ring – mutually agree the formula for Lewis is a controllable adjustment that is unrelated to talent — discipline.
"Ultimately, it's up to him," Ring said. "He has the talent, no question about it. It's all about your mindset – are you ready to put in the work? Be smart, put in the work, be humble, and I don't see why he couldn't help us."
Reyna suggested Lewis needed an enhanced, professional approach – and there are indications that a more mature Lewis is entering 2019.
"I think Lewis has gone from someone who perhaps didn't take responsibility in terms of why he didn't play to holding himself accountable now and demanding more from himself, not only in games but in training day in and day out," Reyna told ESPN FC. "It's part of being a young player and growing up, and you could see that growth."
Torrent, who has trained many of the top players in the world at Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Manchester City, concurs with the observations of Reyna and Ring.
"He can become a top player if he has focus in the training session, in the private life and every single second in soccer," Torrent said. "If you want to become the top player you have to be focused every single day in your life."
Lewis has an acute focus on his deficiencies – defensive organization and possession in tight spaces – and he told Pro Soccer USA prior to his initial USMNT experience that year three as a professional will be an opportunity for him to break the playing time barrier.
"I have to try to get games so I can shore up the defensive ability, because sometimes the tactical aspect is not always learned in practice," Lewis said. "The last two years have been a learning experience. It's good to learn but now I think it's time to show my stuff and get the chance to show my stuff."
Torrent listed Ismael Tajouri-Shradi and Lewis as wingers when describing a 4-3-3 shape for his side, and said he expects Lewis "will help us a lot when we have problems, and if he's able to play well and train well, he'll play the XI of course."
"I think he came back with us much better than the last year," Torrent added.
The former MLS Combine MVP, who played on season at the University of Akron before turning professional, has a full evaluation to assess from the decision-makers within the club plus encouragement from team leadership.
"He has to get his chance more often and that requires hard work and dedication and all these little things that come together," Ring said. "He's in a good place right now and I'll do everything I can to support him."
The next opportunities for Lewis could come in the third preseason friendly for New York City on Saturday, February 16 at Orlando City followed by an exhibition against Minnesota United on Wednesday, Feb. 20.
"I'm excited," Reyna said. "I think he's come in after the Costa Rica game and the January camp looking really sharp."

If you have ever struggled with your weight, you are not alone. If you have gone on more than one diet in your life, you are in good company. If you would love to lose 10 pounds before your wedding, join the crowd. But, I am here to tell you that there are a few things you should NOT do in order to fit into your wedding gown for one day.
Dropping 20 or so pounds before your wedding is tricky, there are dozens (hundreds) of diet pills, supplements, books, tricks, fads and crazes that promise to get you to your ideal weight fast and some of them work. Don't be sucked in by the photos, don't be deluded by the testimonials… there is only one safe and healthy way to lose weight and that is with a healthy diet and exercise.
Rapid weight loss is bad for your heart. My mother in law told me stories of how she would diet, lose 50 lbs before an event and then eventually gain it back, at her funeral she was overweight. I have seen friends go drastically up and down in weight over the years, lost some of those same people due to heart failure and as recently as yesterday lost a dear friend due to her complete and total dedication to a very dysfunctional eating disorder. Lose no more than a pound a week.
Fads are stupid. This recent fad of the 'feeding tube diet" has me concerned. This is probably one of the most irresponsible medical treatments I have seen regarding weight loss. What docotor would agree to this? If you have ever been in the hospital and on a feeding tube ( hopefully you haven't), I can tell you that when you get out you are exhausted. Two years ago I had my ruptured, infected appendix removed. I was 49 yrs old – MUCH older than most appendectomy patients and due to the fact that I didnt realize it ruptured for three days…. it was quite serious. For 8 days I was on a feeding tube and when I finally came home and ate food – real food, I could barely hold the fork. FYI – I only lost 2 pounds. It took months to regain my strength. I was winded, tired and had dark circles under my eyes from the whole ordeal. 2 lbs. Really? Is it worth it? What insane person who loves torture would do this?
When you are 25 years old you are invincible. You don't realize that every time you crash diet and lose 20 lbs you have just overworked your heart. You don't realize that your vitamin counts, muscle tone and energy level have all decreased. You don't realize that you have probably just taken years off of your life. Your body needs fuel just like your car and your body cannot function properly in starvation mode. Your body needs those stored fat and vitamin reserves to fight off the germs.
Get off the sofa and go for a walk, ride a bike to the store, walk to work if you can, walk the dogs if you have them, mow the grass by yourself with a push mower ( my personal favorite), eat apples and oranges every day, carry celery and bananas and crunchy healthy snacks with you at all times. Call Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers or any other safe diet program. Get a fitness DVD or game for the Xbox… Kinect is awesome!
But, please, whatever you do – don't take diet pills, yo-yo diet, starve yourself or sign up for a feeding tube. We will miss you.

Yes it has been a long time since I've signed on to add to my blog. I even forgot my password. May has been so busy with deadlines, vacations, work turmoil, beading! First off, I'm showing my finished Mask for the Beadin' Path (Maine) challenge. I almost didn't get it finished because the dog bite from April didn't heal right & it was difficult for me to finish up all the square stitch fish & seahorses. Also, I lost my Muse and actually decided not to finish the Mask. Then my friend, Cynthia talked me into completing it. Thank you, my friend. I was worried that I couldn't bead enough pieces to cover the Mask, so I started to rummage through my old unfinished project box. I found the fringed necklace & thought it looked like a net so incorporated it into the right side of the Mask.
Then it was time for Cynthia to arrive here in Columbus. We were going on her 50th birthday trip. We were to leave for NYC & staying with Mary (Celticat) for Mother's Day weekend. It was fun & I had a great time shopping. Didn't see many sites, but then that just gives me an excuse to go back & buy more beads, fabric, and trims. I did take the Mask with me & was working on it in Mary's studio while Cyn worked on flowers for her Mask & Mary was making The Sisters dolls for the three of us to bead on in the future. It was great to just sit & bead. My thumb still gave me trouble, but I think working with it was actually better than physical therapy.
Our next trip was up to Akron to visit our good friend Sharon. What a great time. We stayed up one night until 3 am beading & then was woken up at 8am. Did we go back to bed? NO! We got up, beaded until Noon & then went out shopping! Found a great place in Barberton with cheap fabric & trims. Oh yes, I bought more. My friend Pam met us & I think she bought a bit too. LOL! We all did! Then shoe shopping at Lucky Shoes in Akron. Cyn talked me into buying this comfortable pair of shoes. I'm a cheapskate when it comes to shoes, so it was a big "step" for me to pay for them, but MAN they are so comfortable. I think I'm going to have to change my ideas on shoes. Sharon also took us to this chicken place that was fabo & we had a peanut buster parfait at Dairy Queen for dessert. Wonderful day.
Finally we made it to Aurora Inn & the beginning of three days of Think Pink-It's a Girl Thing doll making conference. It was great! We got to take classes with Patti Culea, Karen Shifton, epb, and Barbara Willis. ALL FOUR! It was great, and it was two first for Cyn. She did her first needle sculpting and face painting. I wonder if I got her hooked on doll making. The DollGatherers were a fun group, and made us all feel really welcome. And boy did they go all out on the show. I'll have pictures later next week (promise) of some of that show. And yes, I did bead on the Mask while we were there between classes.
Finally I finished it two days before it was to be sent out. It is called Poseidon's Eyes. I made the fiber covering the painted mask & then bead applique all the fish, creatures, and fish on it. It also has 2 strands of pearls. I'm happy that I did finish it up.

Hey, Dot:
Mask is great. Did you forget about me when you were in Aurora? It sounds like you were to busy to visit. lol I forgive you.

Congrats Dot,
Not only on finishing your mask - nice work - but selling your dolls! It is such a great ego booster when something you make sells.
Beadily yours

Hello Dot,
Congratulations on the absolutely stunning mask! I have the same mask and haven't even started to work on it. It's a full size human mask and quite an undertaking project to do. I am hoping to get to it as soon as I can. If you don't mind my asking, what did you use to bead on it? I was thinking of using Ultrasuede but then I thought... How will I be able to truly get the Ultrasuede to form the exact shape of the mask? What did you do? The beading you did is just absolutely divine! How long did it take you to do? This is not something I could do every day. It's truly a monumental project. I would need breaks in between. It appears you did that as well. I would love to learn more about your experiences with this and especially what you used to bead it... That has been my major obstacle that has been holding me back. I'm great at giving ideas, but horrible at creative ideas for myself. Go figure?! Pffftttt!!! Oh well! Again, huge congratulations is without question one where everyone would give you a standing ovation for! I hope you have this piece showcased. Insure it before you showcase it... I've read a few articles of bead artist having their art work stolen. I cannot imagine that ever happening to you or anyone else. I will be watching more of your fabulous work!
Yours in beaded circle of friends,
Snowrose ~ Heidi

ATC deals with these requirements by dividing the airspace into airport zones, terminal, and low- and highaltitude en route areas, each sub-divided into the smaller parts – ATC sectors.
Public opinion about policies is not always identical to the opinions of local politicians and civil servants. Policies to support public transport often have a lower level of support among local politicians and civil servants than among the general public. On the other hand, local politicians and civil servants may give more support to various regulatory and economic measures than the general public do. The popularity of any measure is by no means an indication of its effectiveness. Indeed, the popularity of a measure may lie precisely in its ineffectiveness.
However, the air quality situation in European cities is still a concern with nearly all urban citizens experiencing pollutants in excess of accepted standards. Of special concern are concentrations of PM10, benzene and ozone, and in spite of clear improvements there still exist many cities with NO2 concentrations exceeding the standards. Air quality monitoring sites in the United States show a 94 per cent decline in the concentrations of lead, a 54 per cent decline for CO, and a 30 per cent decline for both PM10 and ozone from 1975 to 1995.

The city of Molière is certainly one of the most attractive and historic towns in the region. Situated in the valley of the River Hérault, Pézenas has a great variety of specialist shops for applied art and handicrafts, but is especially appealing for its remarkable architecture of the 15th to 18th centuries. The whole of the old town is classed as a protected area, and includes more than 30 buildings registered as historical monuments ; it still looks the same as when Molière and his company played here. Besides the charms of the sumptuous mansions and the cobbled streets and passageways, Pézenas remains a busy town. The town centre has numerous shops selling handicraft and artworks, and businesses involved in intangible heritage.
Pézenas is a member of the Villes et Métiers d'Art network (Towns and Applied Arts). In the former Consular Palace (16th century) is the Maison des Métiers d'Art (House of Art and Handicrafts) which includes an exhibition hall where more than 200 artisans show one-off or limited-edition creations.
About 15 antique dealers have shops on the old main road which runs through the town, and twice a year, on the first Sunday in May and the second Sunday in October the town holds its Great Antiques and Collectables fair with 150 exhibitors.
Pézenas is a dynamic town and organises numerous events, cultural, artistic or just good fun, including culinary events where its many restaurants will help you discover the delights of the regional specialities. And don't miss the market which has been held in the town centre every Saturday since the end of the 15th century.
As you will have understood, Pézenas is absolutely superb ! Go and discover, or rediscover, it, it's our favourite town in the region !
about 25 minutes from Ô Chai d'Œuvres
Considered one of the most beautiful villages in France, officially a Grand Site de France, Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert is a world-renowned concentration of exceptional mediaeval jewels, including the Abbey of Gellone and the Devil's Bridge, UNESCO World Heritage sites. Situated in the valley of the River Hérault, the village is a stage on the Way of St. James. Don't miss the parish church (the former abbey church of the Abbey of Gellone), but also the best-conserved organ by Jean-Pierre Cavaillé (17th century). The abbey cloister was exported to the USA after being confiscated during the French revolution, and is now one of the masterpieces of The Cloisters museum in New York and part of the UNESCO World Heritage site Way of St. James. The Abbey museum has a collection of sculptures from cloisters, the tombs of Saint William of Gellone and his sisters, and a film presenting the history of the Abbey. You can also visit the Prison Tower and the Giant's Castle, part of the town's defences ; the grotto of La Clamouse, said to be one of the most beautiful grottos in France ; and the Devil's Bridge dating from the 11th century, considered one of the oldest mediaeval bridges in France.
Major nearby towns worth a visit are SÈTE (25 minutes), BÉZIERS (30 minutes) and MONTPELLIER (35 minutes)
THE BEACHES are between 20 and 40 minutes from Ô Chai d'Œuvres. The beaches of the Languedoc are the most beautiful fine sandy beaches in the South of France. Our favourites are Aresquiers, Magulone, Agde, Frontignan, Sète and Espiguette.
