April at the Library

Here is my exhibit at the library in Mt. Vernon, IN. I decided to mix it up this time….a few scarves, some photography and some mixed media. I think the blend worked well together. This exhibit is now over. I picked it up today. I am hanging another one on Friday at the Harrisburg library.

A Few Things I’ve Been Working On

First, the “collaboration.” I finally finished my part, which was dye the base, and stitch it in preparation for the rest of the work to be done by others.

At the quilt retreat, I finished new bags for the shop with my own beaded zipper trims.

Bags for shop

 

I’ve recently started work on a “sweatshirt” quilt. Back in December I made a tshirt quilt. The same lady brought me all of her daughter’s sports sweatshirts too. I think they will make a cute throw size quilt.

March 25, 2014 – Awake, Thou Wintry Earth….

Awake, thou wintry earth –
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!
~Thomas Blackburn, “An Easter Hymn”
