The Old Silk Road

My honey, Geoff, left on Monday for Uzbekistan and we just got the Kaffe Fassett collection which has fabric called Uzbekistan...go figure! Geoff thought that was really neat when I showed him!

We do a lot of traveling together, but this was a trip that wasn't within my interest scope, however, I will be excited to hear about his adventures when he gets back in May.




He will be gone for almost a month and I will miss him, but I know he will have fun. Of course I will have fun here at home and may have to grab some of the Uzbekistan fabric and do something with it before he gets back.

What beautiful textiles he will see!

He will be traveling The Silk Road on a tour and has gotten it in his head to do some wheeling and dealing to buy yarn and maybe Laura will make him her international yarn rep...ha ha!! I am afraid that when he gets an idea in his head it's impossible to shake and of course he is actually kidding about this, but is truly going to look for yarn and textiles!!


Oooh, ooh, I just thought of an idea for the Kaffe fabric...a couple of comfy pillows!! What do you think?


How about the Honey Bun Pouf by Amy Butler? We could sit around on the floor and eat in an exotic manner and that would be almost like being on a trip!

For now we can all dream of travel together and consider the projects that we can make around those wonderful mental journeys! Are you travelling anywhere fun this year? Feel free to share!

As always, happy knitting, crocheting and sewing!
