Recently blogging has taken a backseat. It seems the more one has to blog about the less time there is to actually blog.
Today I will share just a few things happening in the background, some of which are on my other blogs.
Photography has been busy recently. Head shots, grads, families and babies. Many an hour past midnight has been spent on the computer editing away. ( http://www.debra-hunter.com or http://www.hunterphotographics.wordpress.com )
With the blooming of wildflowers natural dyeing is a daily event. (www.handmade-canada.com)
- Goldenrod in the wild.
- Dyeing in Goldenrod.
- The final product of wool yarn dyed with Goldenrod.
Plus I have been knitting items for Talisman Books and Gallery on Pender Island and the Bear’s paw Bakery in Jasper. In addition to these two retailers I have been completing custom orders like the hats below…….
and making hats to be posted on the website. ( http://www.handmade-canada.com )
With tree pruning there has also been spoon carving. We won’t discuss the scale of this one, it is rather ambitious!
Our land search has taken us to the mountains multiple times, allowing us to enjoy many hikes.
The thing that keeps us busiest of all are our trips back and forth to the coast. After all, who can resist ocean kayaking? ( http://www.islandhomeblog.wordpress.com )
I do find I am able to keep more up-to-date on Instagram. I can be found at @debramhunter , @handmadeincanada, and at @hunterphotographics ……..social media is almost a full time job!

We ate at the Bear’s Paw Bakery in Jasper in May!
I don’t understand how you do so much and travel so far; make me tired just reading your accomplishments. Nice hats! Beautiful wool.
Thanks for the comment. A lot of the knitting gets done while traveling. It is 16 hours to the ferry and 2.5 hours on the ferry plus waiting . A return trip let’s me get a lot of work done. I think I just like to be busy, I’ve never been a big fan of TV or movies (or sleep), so I have lots of free time for making.
