Road Trip memories Part I
The Sibs, Sis and Bro, and their creation Frankie Uber-Navigator, center – with compass ball on his head, had successfully reached Anonymous A.P.’s lovely home in Chino Hills. After the splendor of the Rocky Mountain’s western slope and it’s fresh produce, and the austere beauty of the desert, they enjoyed this sunset. Quiet time before [...]
Frankensibs
Having quickly learned of their poor navigation skills, the siblings, Sis and Bro, made quick work out of constructing their own uber-navigator. The Road Trip to Long Beach is back on track. Through the dessert and over the pass…
Not left behind
Insuring they will not be left at the studio, to work with all the yummy new texture slabs and sheets that just arrived before our departure – (so sad am I), Bro, left, and Sis, right, took up the steering wheel position. They promise to navigate so they will not be in the way. Road [...]
Sis and Bro show prep
After being left in Colorado instead of beholding the beauty of Chicago, Sis and Bro declared their willingness to earn their own way on the next International Quilt Festival trip. They began by packing the display suitcases full of finished collage cards. Bro is explaining the technique he would like Sis to use. Notice he’s [...]
Little Joys Big Joys
Thank you Dooley and Lynn for reminding me how to slow down and breathe. Being on the rodent wheel I’ve forgotten to be thankful, until today. But the guru and the fiber goddess at Fibra Artysta gave me a pleasant reminder. I ask for an odd indulgence: do any other humans out there appreciate the [...]
Upside down thinking creates creature
Carl has reinvented himself from a snagged-up pashmina scarf. Mom and Bubba think he needs a mouth, but this way he can’t jabber, only flail his arms about for attention. I like it better that way. Shhh, don’t tell Carl, but I created him. He came about a little oddly: I took a class from [...]
Stuie the woodland nymph
This is my little buddy, Stuie. He accompanied me home after taking a workshop at Artfest, with Liz McGrath. He must have emerged from the beautiful woods with the local deer that share Port Townsend, WA with the mortals. Stuie is a working nature talisman. Since sharing my home, he has brought me honey bees [...]

Although they were not behaved enough to be able to go. The sock kids wanted to wish everyone a great time at the International Quilt Festival in Chicago. Sloan
When you sleep…
Do you kick your socks off in the middle of the night? Do they lay stranded on the floor until wash-day? Do you know what they are doing while you sleep? They are role playing and having a blast. If you wish to end their free reign in the bedroom, keep them in the hamper. [...]
Chocolate mouthed plushy
Sometimes we need to depend on a visual to make us smile and remember the silly side of life. Sock creatures do this for me. This is my latest and we’ve taken to calling her chocitome. She is not allowed to have arms as it would lead to chocolate overdose. It takes longer to unwrap [...]
