Today I did nothing but felt and nap and lots more felting than napping. I finished the starfish that I started yesterday and then did another starfish and then we started to have some visitors. The building that we are in used to be a girls school and the last number of years they taught home economics here. Occasionally the girls come back to visit and today 16 from a class of 20 from the 1970 -1971 class came and looked around and had lots of laughs. Most of them just poked their heads in the studio where I work but they were all friendly and all spoke English.

The last head mistress for the school lives in town and when groups come to visit she comes to give them a tour of the exhibit rooms that are set up and after they left Amanda and I got to have a tour.  They have the parlour furniture from the first headmistress and it is set up very nicely in one of the old bedrooms. They have a room set up as the head mistresses office with gifts that the girls gave to many of the mistresses over the years and the last room had hand work that the girls had done. There was weaving, knitting, embroidery, smoking and some other stuff that I have forgotten. It was very impressive and wonderful to see and to find out the history of the school.

It iwas then back to felting and at the end of the day I finished some parts for my coral reef, a piece with marbles is drying overnight and I should be able to cut the marbles out in the morning and I got started on a stylized sea urchin. I will take pictures tomorrow when the light is better. It is 10:00 p.m here and time for bed so I can get up and go at it again tomorrow.
