Have just returned from a long trip – Florida to California – where I was given the opportunity to attend the craft and hobby industry trade show to help promote my first book Knit & Crochet Combined.
That’s a long way to go away from home for me. I’m very much a homebody but this was too good to pass up. Having just returned home this morning around 1:00 AM, I’m still a little tired and fuzzy so this post will be short. I’ll elaborate on the trip and what I saw and learned in future posts.
To spice things up a bit, I tried to keep a sketch diary of sorts as I traveled. Due to a full schedule, it didn’t get used as often as I would have liked, but I did manage a few things.
To start, I left home at 5:15 AM on Sunday morning to make sure to sit at the gate in our regional airport. The transportation service I used gave me that pickup time which allowed me about an hour to check in and go through security. That all took around 10 minutes so I was in no danger of missing the plane.
With plenty of time to draw, I also got a nice sketch of the carpet patttern at the gate too.
