{A Week of Contemplation}

Today its “surfaces” that are catching my eye… let’s indulge in a little eye-candy  shall we?  On closer look at everyday things, these surfaces have much to tell.  Patterns don’t have to be predictable and dull, the bark on a tree is much more than a field of brown, the sheen of glass is much...

Robin, that is an adorable quilt. The baby will have pleasant dreams sleeping with it.

You are so good with the curved seam! I am just starting to want to do that kind of quilt making. Well sort of. I have read a couple books and have to admit the fusing is more my style. But I am going to try it at least once before I give up entirely. The quilt does have a different look when finished. Do you do long arming for others or do you just use the machine for yourself?

Those surfaces are all beautiful and have such rich textures. That’s going to be one lucky baby, too!

While walking through my studio, I noticed a house turned on it’s side with a few other discarded elements from other projects.  It makes me wonder, do houses always have to be standing upright? On another note, I recently saw this on Etsy… it’s a driftwood candle holder from Nature’s Cabinet.  I just thought you’d...

I feel the need to pause just a little… to intentionally slow down just a bit and just be.  With the kids in school and their schedules getting busier, with work being done on a couple of fundraisers I’m involved with, and with all the frenzy swirling around in our world today, I cannot help...

You are welcome Robin! I see that the wiggly tree of yours that I like so much has found a home. :-) And… seeing as chartreuse seems to be in all three photos, I’m wondering if it will show up elsewhere too — perhaps a green and grey polyptych?!
