Joy Smith is cool. She must be patient, and imaginative, insightful and oh, so clever. Most of us don’t even bother meditating on our holidays and happy times long enough to print the bloody digital images. But Joy really knows how to suck every last pleasure out of a holiday. Not only does she print her holiday snaps but just to make sure she remembers every bit, she weaves mini tapestries out of them and pins them to herself. Now that’s dedication.
