I never thought I'd be one of those people who say, "I can't believe how long it's been since I posted," but here I am. No interesting excuses. I've been traveling, doing family things, entertaining house guests, and trying to keep ahead of the Center of Entropy which is my house and yard. Thank those of you who emailed to see what was up with me.
On the family front, my grandchildren came for the Memorial Day weekend, and here they are using Grandma's glue and fabric scraps to create a multi-media work of art.
And in the housekeeping area, I'm gradually moving part of my stash to this old cabinet my husband salvaged from the chemistry labs. If it's good to re-purpose fabric, it should be equally good to re-purpose furniture, even though the resulting studio doesn't look like an article from Quilter's Home.
The only thing happening creatively is this little piece for Alz Quilts.
Ami Simms is speaking at our guild tomorrow night, and in preparation, everyone drew a crayon from a basket and is challenged to make an Alz Quilt using that color predominantly. My color was red orange, and as you see, I'm barely within the rules. Art has a mind of its own, right? The binding will be orange, and the backing too. Maybe that counts.
I hope there's a good response to the challenge and a large turnout for the meeting. It's terrific that we're having an outside speaker, and especially such a notable one.
