April Activities and an Online Class

As I look back at the last few weeks, I realize I've hardly touched my camera.  If I have, it's been for my fiber arts activities.  I've knitted a cardigan and finished it back in March.  I'm now focused on knitting warm weather garments.  Mostly sleeveless.

Here's the results:

My hand knitted Ocean Cardi

Knitting the back of my Maremma two tone vest (pewter & garnet colors)

My Rosanna sleeveless tunic (black tweed)

Tomorrow, I start an eight week class using Illustrator.  I've been "teaching" myself for the last year and most recently using it to create brochures, posters, flyers and a magazine ad.  "Google" had been my loyal friend, but now I must take a class to make sure I'm using Illustrator to it's fullest potential.  Also, to make sure I haven't picked up any bad habits like creating huge files sizes.  

I've realized there is never a good time to take a class.  I'm always busy between work and home life. My motto has been "just do it" and make time.  So far, it's been working.  :)
