Baby Ethan... not sure he is making good choices on who to hang out with, but his daddy is a fan so I am sure he will follow along! |
But I did have a moment to work on a quilt for a friend. She is volunteering at Interval house and asked me to quilt a quilt for her that the house will auction to raise money for the quilting program. I have to say that some how, working on that quilt gave me a great feeling. It wasn't easy, I will tell you!. My thread kept breaking, and all though I did everything I could think of, it just wasn't playing nice. I persevered and put a song in my heart, because I knew it was all going to be good in the end, and I felt like I was doing something really special. It's almost finished and Sharon will pick it up tomorrow, and I am glad I took the time to do it. But I have to say... quilting around those little hands and feet, made my heart bleed just a little...
Saturday I worked on some embroidery I want to get finished and Sunday I booked my flight to Alberta.
Monday I ordered some beautiful "pots" from my niece in Nelson BC.... I can't wait to get them! She is so talented and creative. http://cbculturetour.com/artists_2010/artist-8O.htm

The rest of the week has been a train wreck! Unless you are a strong non believer, you will understand when I say there has a been a full moon all week!!! I have not been able to do anything right, so I stopped doing everything. I leave today at 8 to go to my nieces wedding and I haven't even started to pack yet and we leave in about 4 hours. I got up so early today and came down into the kitchen just as my brother was making his lunch for work. He had left a cupboard open and yes you guessed it... I ran into. I have a cut on my forehead, a huge headache and I foresee a fairly ugly bruise to go with it... Just in time for family pictures at the wedding!!!
Anyway, I am off to do some billings and while I am away I will be on the watch for some new things to tell you about when I get back... September first is the end of my summer vacation and I will be back to work. I am planning on setting some studio time aside each day with a huge do not disturb sign on my door so look out world... A Creative River may flow!!!
See you next week after the wedding...
