Drying Roses....

What a lovely, sunny weekend we've had.
Yesterday I did laundry in the morning.
It's such a treat to create freshly washed linens.

Then in the afternoon we went to Panera for
lunch with gift cards our daughters and son-in-law
gave us. Toddled over to Michaels for new yarns
to make a throw for our bedroom, and then
off to Barnes & Noble where I purchased the
newest edition of Quilting Arts magazine.
Jane Davila of Quilting Arts interviewed me
about 2 months ago for an art licensing
article and it is in this one!
I feel so honored that Jane contacted me,
and doubly honored because I share the
stage, so to speak, with three very well-
known and accomplished artists:
Claudine Hellmuth, an artist friend that
I've known for quite a few years. Many
of you probably recognize Claudine's name
from her collage art and craft products;
Lucie Summers, a printmaker, who I have
not had the pleasure of meeting or getting
to know yet; and Tracie Lyn Huskamp,
mixed media artist and author of the
book, "Nature Inspired", which I was
given by my daughter, Holly.

Today was spent painting in my studio
and crocheting this afternoon while
watching cooking shows on PBS.

This evening, on tap:
DOWNTON ABBEY!

I hope you have all had a nice
weekend also!
