BEING A STUDENT
Before I begin my regular posting again, I want to thank you all for your many, many, many emails and blog comments. Truly, your kind words went straight to my heart and I'm so grateful for your support. The reason I shared this sorrow was to remind myself and perhaps you too......make sure your loved ones know how important they are to you....time is not always on our side!
But now...let's talk fiber,

Long day….
It started out early as I headed to the airport to pick up my brother. Then on to my mother's apartment. We watched as the movers loaded her furniture and boxes on a truck. Then a quick good-bye (I almost succeeded in not crying), and brother and mother drove away to Augusta to her new home.Such strange feelings I have. I'm a bit melancholy tonight.

Girl & Dog to Become New Pincushion
I've been on the lookout for interesting items to make into pincushions. This one came from the Elephant's Trunk Flea Market in New Milford, CT.

Super Secret Project Sneak Peek
Super Secret Project Back
I know some of you are sick of hearing about it, but I need to keep it under wraps for awhile longer. I thought I would give you just a little taste of the Super Secret Project I have been working on.
This is the back and I think that Philip Jacobs fabric looks great. The back was not a drama queen either. With a large piece of fabric like that, it went together really fast.

I discovered that the same child who doesn't remember his school bag in the morning knows the names of all the models on display. A serious case of selective memory.
