What does one do with those blocks?

Michele Beschen 
is the crafty chick at
borganic

 and these were on her blog
http://www.borganic.net/blog/

These would be cute on a 
coffee table for a little
whims fun.
Just sayin'

Never Let Go

 'Never Let Go'

This is my latest fabric collage artwork
embellished with jeans and blue ticking fabric
 blue bird feather and crochet pieces
 Scrabble letters and lace
beads on rusty wire and yarn heart
Made for a friend's son who recently
took for himself a bride...
a good thing.
I title my piece 'Never Let Go'

Blessings,

A Good Thing

 Velvet pumpkins...
a good thing.

 Chair covers...
a very good thing.


 A place to reflect on blessings...
a necessary thing.
 

 I pray for those in need of peace.
For those in need of a place.
 
I would encourage you to
enjoy those seated around the
THANKSGIVING TABLE
be they family or friends...

it's a good thing.

Busiest place in town

 As families gather
 around the kitchen for this
Thanksgiving and Christmas season,
 I pray for renewal of spirit,
 renewal of relationships,
 renewal of all that makes 
a family the
cornerstone of a society.
God Bless us all!

Autumn Glow

 There's just somthing
calming about
the glow of a candle
 when there is a crisp wind
blowing outside
Wishing all a wonderful
weekend

all-a-flutter

 Tickled pink after a wonderful rain
and seems I'm not the only one.
She's a bit shy
Miss Tiger Swallowtail,
didn't want to give me 
a good shot.

Hope your Monday is off to a flying start!

Cherish Every Moment

 Finishing up on some 
altered fabric collages
 a little vintage lace and
pieces of this and that
touched or created by
artful hands of the past,
find their way into
my art that reminds...
cherish every moment

Glamping...I wish!

 Well I have the tent all set up...
where is hubby with the canoe.
Now which way did that girl go?

Off to the Boundary Waters of Minnesota
for a week in the wilderness.

I just might not come back...

Flower Girl


  My latest art piece...
The Flower Girl

vintage photo & brooch, 
pieces of fabric & trim, 
 layers of embellishments
There is a part of me that wants to keep
every creation. This one sold in 
less than a week and...
I miss her.
Every girl should
wear flowers 
in her hair

Wedding Bells


Wedding Bells are ringing

Kitchen Band is singing

The clock is dinging...

and I'm running out of time!


Speaking of running...

Bride & Groom hold those vows,

Kitchen Band take a bow,

cause Dixie and I are running...

off to the Big TOP!

Round Top

Friends

What are they good for?
Talking things out...
Off today for a little sharing with
my girlfriend.
therapy chair...
another good thing that helps,
looking thru the
chippy, faded, whites
posted on White Wednesday

Here's to a
Good Friend...
she's cheaper than therapy.

Angel Band

Dixie, down in French Lique, Texas
just snatched up this shy little angel
at Glory B's Cottage in Geronimo.

Then I'm turning the page in my new
Small Gardens Spring 2012
issue and
well...

there is her--just as shy--twin sister
hiding on page 39.

Close your eyes and dream
