August

It has been a slow month for sewing.  I'm in the middle of a hospice quilt - due soon.  Procrastination must be my middle name as I've had it long enough that I shouldn't be down to the wire!  And next will come a few other deadlines - least of which will be the 12 challenge of Reflections.

This is a little piece made for a group quilt.  What I like about it is the use of my gelatin plate printed fabric- I think it worked out rather well and certainly not the usual abstract use!

Summer has been good this year, and August has been especially so - the weather good, the corn delicious, bike rides to markets, and lots of time at the cottage.  Our daughter is back from the UK for a month and there have been birthday parties, and there are weddings to go to.  

It's also been a good time to reflect on my art and how to develop it.  Stay tuned!
