Cover girl

At LONG last, my copy of Handwoven arrived…and I am totally thrilled!  My Kodachrome Coat is on the front cover, and there’s a two-page spread on it further towards the center, plus of course the pages with instructions on how to make it.

Here’s the cover:

I’m very, very pleased.  🙂

Quite a contrast to my other stint as a cover girl:

(Yes, that’s body paint.  No, I’m not wearing anything else (except a shell necklace)!  It was also ten years and quite a few pounds ago…but I digress.)

Anyway, I’m ecstatic about the Handwoven cover, and feeling quite honored.  Especially since Interweave has been featuring Kodachrome quite prominently in its email newsletters of late.  I hadn’t dreamed of being on the front cover!  I’m totally thrilled.

And, another thrilling sight (though perhaps more so for me than for you):

The Infinite Warp, fully threaded and partially sleyed!

I think I’ll be weaving by the weekend!
