whoohoo....another sale


another sale....an unexpected email and unexpected sale...always the best kind of surprise! The blue heron will be winging his way to California shortly to his new home....

one of the few journal quilts i still have....hes completely done with thread on romeo....not a scrap of fabric other than the net base for the thread painting...its the view out my studio window...our sycamore my unkempt river bank...and the birds and dragon flies i see around here all the time...

hmm maybe i need to do one of that osprey....who flies up and down the river several times a day...feeding babies i bet!!!

I am off to Arts In the Heart a downtown Augusta GA arts festival on the river...we are at Booth 65 if you are passing thru...Its a juried show and usually has great arts and crafts....after that i am going to start posting stuff to sell on Etsy.....

Congratulations! That is a great piece. We have a heron at the inlet at the bottom of our street...beautiful birds.

I love this quilt! We have great blue herons around our lake and river. I love watching them fly, so prehistoric looking. I have always called them my "friends". When my boys were small and would see one, they would yell, "look mom! One of your friends!"
They have always held a place in my heart. Whenever I am praying or working something out in my mind, if I see a blue heron at that time, I know it is a sign that I am on the right track.
