Works in Progress

I am not one to make resolutions as I am too tempted to start down a new path that comes along.  I've reached SABLE (Stash Beyond Life Expectancy) so don't expect to finish everything.  But plugging along at a variety of projects to keep my interest, eventually most are completed.  This blog has been a good reminder of how much I do complete since once they are done the projects are given away or become part of the landscape. Here are a few works in progress:


Knitted shawl with handspun




Blueberry Tort and Thankful Wool needlework
Handspinning lovely grey alpaca
Finishing off with a highlight from Christmas, Mocha handmade by most beloved son

Sunday Tea


Spent Sunday with BFF in De Funiak Springs.   Lovely tea at the old hotel and view of the Christmas lights.  My light photos were all blurry. :(

Shifting Textures Show

Just finished a group show at the Visual Arts Center of Northwest Florida.  It is down now so I can post a few photos of my pieces.  As my BFF says, "You are really out there!"

Lovely day

Playing with Type
 Spent a lovely day yesterday at the Publishing Museum in St. Andrews.  While those up north are enjoying (?) fireplaces and snow.  Us southerners are walking about in shorts and sandals.   Being a Florida native, I think this is quite alright and don't mind 78 degree Thanksgivings. 

Happy Thanksgiving Yall!

More type lying about

Tinyest part of wonderful Christmas Village, more later...
