The shots of
paper shoes above are from the Emily Carr Foundation Show that I attended with
Julien on Thursday night. I was gob smacked by a couple of pieces that weren’t credited with the artist’s name!
Shame on you Foundation faculty!

The USA bans
Muslims and bombs Afghanistan and Syria. Meanwhile in Canada, Malala Yousafzai gets
honorary Canadian citizenship (and she honours our refugee policies in her
speech to parliament) and we introduce legislation to legalize recreational use
of marijuana — perhaps the first nation to legalize weed.

Ecstasy is an
undisturbed day of dressmaking. I’ll finish dress number nine in the next few
days. Of course … I have to go back for more
marbles this morning! Soon I’ll face the remaining two challenges with this
dress: Flocking the skirt and adding the logo. But then one of my best dresses
will be done.
Remember when
debutantes, at the age of consent, were formally introduced to society at huge fancy
public balls? Well my ladies need such a “coming out.” But when they are, I’m
pretty certain that they’ll be presented as my work: I’m keen to hire an actor
to play Charlotte Mercer to speak at the opening about “her “work.

Today’s plan is
more dress work and in the afternoon to go to the Vaisakhi Festival (Punjabi
New Year) for some free Indian food and to have fun with Cathy.
