*********************************

Earlier this month we had our Boro Collage Class. Ten amazingly creative people came together and designed their own collages. Below are samples of what we started. Thanks to Sarah, Gail, Marlene, Susan O , Susan P, MaryAnn, Alison, Nancy, Marci, and Karla for sharing their day with me.


I love this piece, beautiful colors and great background.


Karla has this collage down perfect. She is amazing.


Classy Beginning....notice the chop sticks??? Lunch utensils.




Sorry about the quality of this picture. So many fun ways to place a background.


Note the texture in Susan's background.

Gail is putting her Sashiko stitching expertise to good use.


This is MaryAnn's beginning for her tribute to her Grandmother.


Nancy has a bag in mind for her project. 


Alison is making great progress.


Marlene has a way with color and is on a mission to finish!!


MaryAnn is at the finish line of her beautiful tribute using memorabilia from her Grandmother 


Marci is using beautiful creams and blues for her background.

I hope I get the chance to see all these projects when they are finished. These ladies were such an inspiration to me. We stepped out of our comfort zone and tried new skills. Keeps life interesting. Thanks to all of you who came and participated. It was a wonderful day.

******************************

Next up...watch for a new class in May exploring Stitch Journals. It will be fun.

Camping in the Rain

 Hello Everyone,  We went camping at Barview Jetty a little while ago and it rained almost all the time we were there! On the way it was necessary to stop here at our favorite fish shop! Best shrimp, sauce, and clam chowder that we have found.  Excellent. We went there on the way to camp and on the way home. Even thought it rained so much, the clouds were spectacular. The sand had some cool patterns We had friends that camped next to us and we ate really well.  Some reading and stitching were also part of our days. A couple weeks ago we went to McIver park to camp. Again it rained almost the whole time we were there. Same friends kept us entertained and we continued with our eating really well. This is a reflection in the lake of the sun trying to come out. Mamma ducks and babies were enjoying the break in the rain. We have found out that our beloved Oscar has Prostate cancer and Cushings disease. It's a sad blow as we lost both our Silkies last year. We don't know how long we

Coming out of hibernation

 I decided it was time to bring my blog back to life. I thought about it for some time and decided it would be so nice to connect with friends again even if it's just with words. I have mostly enjoyed being at home and catching up with reading and sewing. My Etsy shop is doing well and I would like to share some of the things that are currently available.                                        I bought this tin in The Netherlands when I was recently there visiting my daughter and her family. They took me to a very cool old antique shop and they have Lots of tins. The shop had so many things that I would have liked to take home. But Not possible. This is another one! It's been fun finding things to put in the sewing boxes. They are listed in my Etsy shop thequiltingbshop.Etsy.com There are lots of size 12 Valdani Thread available too. A few of the ones that I just listed I brought home some beautiful French floss that is paired up with some wool squares and some that are listed
