Happy New Year to all my kite friends. True to form, it is another holiday with rain for the entire long weekend. For me, 2020 has been a crappy year for kite flying. I’m hoping 2021 will be better. In the meantime, I’ll be in front of my sewing machine trying to improve my kite building. Hope this year brings more kites and good flying to all of you.

The Governor of NC extended phase 2 of COVID restrictions until July 17. Lots of plans had to be postponed or canceled.

Which festival?

I was wondering. How many viewers actually look at the Kitelife blog posts? I post a link in my Kitelife blog Each time I add to my kite flying blog. Does anyone really use the link and read the blog? Is it worth my time to keep on doing it?

Beaches are closed. Supplies are limited (I.e. paper products, meat, milk, bread, etc.). While those of us who live here at the coast stay home and are unable to go to the beach, people who have second homes are flocking from the urban areas to get away from the virus and spent time on the beach. Since we are a vacation economy (motels, hotels, condos, restaurants), my guess is 70-80% of the permanent residents are unemployed. I’m afraid a lot of local businesses won’t make it.
We are using the time to catch up on yard work and landscaping. I am trying to do some kite building and find an empty field with decent wind and no power lines to put up something. If there are no further blog posts or updates, I have been arrested for trespassing.

Check out this link. It’s old and the links it contains may not work anymore but the information contained in the body should help. It is basic sewing and fabric information that should get you started.

Yep. Custom colors. Took weeks to decide.

I store mine in bags, on end, in my craft room. Each bag is labeled for what it contains - delta kites, dual line stunt kites, single line kites, vintage kites, art kites, kites I’ve built, low/no wind kites.

If I was going to design a sports fan kite, it would be green and gold. Go Pack Go!!!!!! Actually, that’s a thought.

Holy Sh*t!! (Excuse the language.) This was the last thing I was expecting. Guess I had better get to work on the colorizer. Thank you!! Thank you!!!

Definitely don’t get the Mojo. Fast and twitchy, even with the air brakes attached. I put mine away a couple of years ago. I saw it in the quad bin the other day and may try it again (or not). I’m not even sure I remember how to assemble it.

Hadn’t stopped by chat in a while. Wasn’t sure if it was discontinued or I had done something to erase it. Hopefully we can get it back as it was the easiest way to get there on my iPad.

Sounds like this prize is just made for a kite builder/scrapbooker. Oh, that’s me! 😆
