No alarm clock. Just lazing about. Sitting out on a terrace with friends or relaxing in the garden with a book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No, I can\u2019t do without thread\u2026 And I\u2019ve been working on a new piece for nearly 10 months now. I need 5,500 knotted threads for it!!
Each thread has to be tied off at both ends, so that\u2019s 11,000 times. That\u2019s about 200 hours\u2019 work. I\u2019m getting towards the last few threads, so yes, I work on them every now and then. I can\u2019t help it. It\u2019s also a form of relaxation for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But even more relaxing than that. Out in the sunshine. In my lovely green garden (there\u2019s not much colour at the moment because I prune all my butterfly bushes and salvias in mid-July, so that I\u2019ll have another flush of flowers in mid-September).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s it. My commissions have really come to a standstill, and when I received an enquiry about buying a piece, I was even able to reply by email: Great. And I\u2019ll get back to you after 8 August as I\u2019ll be on holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whoop whoop. I\u2019ll get the hang of it.
