November 26 - December 6 stitching. The research and writing of my dissertation has consumed me for nine months.
I kept notes on a zillion books in these plastic duo-tangs. 
I made outlines and talked to myself in five black hard covered blank books. 
The wall in my home studio helped me a lot. 
Now that the thing is outta here I can return to my self. HELLO MAKING! GOOD BYE just thinking about it.
CONGRATULATIONS!! What an accomplishment.
