This week's Working Center experience was really different for me. I loved teaching so much last week that I knew this week i had to do something to top it. Something that could help me show the world what I had found up in that back corner. I had to share the joy with someone else!
So I brought my boyfriend, Josh. I was so excited to show him everything that goes on. I found all the materials and I taught him how to make the books that I made last week. Being able to show him what I was working on and working towards was a ton of fun.
We made 3 books, and they all turned out beautifully. We each got lost in our own worlds for a bit while we were making them. hen we were finished for the day we put everything away and then went downstairs to look at some of the things that were for sale. I found the rug that I wove, but I hadn't brought any money with me to buy it. We looked at some of the other beautiful wares that others had created and I think we both felt a great amount of pride for all of teh beauty that we helped to accomplish upstairs with Misha.
After we left the Working Center, Josh started asking me many questions about all the people who work at the center. I couldn't answer all of them, but the ones I did answer I felt confident about. It's funny to think that a few weeks ago I was complaining that i woudl never feel comfortable and that i coudl never learn new skills.
And now here I am. learning, teaching, and loving all at the same time.
