Spin*Off Magazine
by Interweave
Spring 2016
It is always flattering when a magazine contacts you for permission to use a photo from your blog. I am not a "spinner" so I was not familiar with the magazine, but I am very familiar with their sister publication Cloth, Paper, Sissors.
My photo is the one in the middle, of a Romanian woman spinning.
Here is my copy of the photo...
The image below was not used in the magazine, but is one of my very favorite photos from our trip, so I thought I would share it. No, they did not pose for me; they were just sitting by the side of the road! The woman in brown is also spinning. You can see the entire Romania trip here.
Great pix!! How are you doing on your art room??

Wonderful! I am so glad they used your photo, because it created the opportunity for me to read your blog on the Romania trip in 2011.What a unique experience, especially if you consider the hard times the country had since then.It is a place I'll probably never visit, so is was lovely to get a glimpse of those old churches, the icons and the lifestyle of the people. Also enjoyed reading the comments. Precious memories!

Congratulations Cathy for being published in Spin Off magazine which seems to be specialized in yarn and wool and spinning... the picture you took back in 2011 is so perfect in many ways, striking composition with great lines, beautiful portrait of a woman whose life may be hard, wonderful capture of a craft which has almost disappeared, I'm not surprised that your photograph was selected by this magazine... This was the opportunity for me to follow the link and read your so interesting trip through Romania... I've learned so much through your wonderful pictures and details about life and customs of a country not so far from France but quite unknown for most French people... thank you Cathy and Donald for this wonderful trip I made with you...
