Getting Started

This is an experiment—An experiment in throwing myself into the world of Social Media. I have been told countless times in the last year how important an active online presence is. I have started blogs before, but never having a specific purpose or direction, they have fallen to the wayside.

I hope that this will be a focused blog, and a tool to focus me. My medium is fabric, clothes. I am learning to think through pen and paint, transferring my thoughts to 3-D clothing. Studying Fashion Design in Vancouver has been an adventure. I finished my first year a week ago, and have one more to go. Who knows where it will all end? The journey so far has been full of adventure. Here I will chronicle my journey going forward, confident that this will be an exciting path.

Today though, is about starting. And I haven't really been sewing or drawing since classes ended a week ago. I have made cupcakes for my dear husband's birthday! These are Coca Cola Cupcakes with Peanut Butter frosting from Sprinkle Bakes Blog. They will be enjoyed this evening around a camp fire with friends.

So taking the first step, I am doing a post. Completely off topic.
