wow you are very blessed Jiri to have such space, I use my kitchen for my crafts, or sit on our porch in the summer to do them.

My Studio

Show us what your studio looks like. What's the vibe? What do you love/hate about it? What would you change?

George, what great space! I love it. And yes, the storage room should always be double whatever it is. lol!

When you have time, go to my blog where I've posted a little narrative and photos of the mosaic pot I finished last fall. My blog is called "Works on So Many Levels" and here is the link.

Look around and leave some comments if you feel like it.

It's Beeeeen a While

Helly damn. Sorry to cuss, but it's just so hard to keep up. I have neglected this beautiful site for so very long. A lot of water has gone under the bridge. Strike it up to...Life Happening, Coupled with a Procrastinator's Heart...and there you have it.

All I guess I really want to do right now is catch you up on a tiny portion of what's been going on in my life. It's one of those things that seemingly has nothing to do with creativity but AHA!! Never underestimate The Muse. So here he is and… Continue

Bits and Pieces

I'm working on some mosaic pieces. It seems I can't just work on one at a time; I have to do at least two pieces at a time. I'm not sure why, but it doesn't matter. My mantra is always that if I'm working on ANYthing, it's better than working on absolutely nothing. I already have lots of tiles because I did a bench top for an auction a few years ago and there were lots of leftovers. But I found myself buying a few more (thousand) bits and pieces anyway!

Bare's 3's

1. Three things I wish I knew more about.
Making money
Making music
Secrets of life

2. Three things I got in trouble for OR recognition for (or both) and what the outcome was, please.
Legs

Playfulness

Outcome of each: fabulous and/or humiliating, depending on audience, Grace, and alignment of planets at any given time.

3. Three jobs I left and why.
Small ad agency artist. Okay I was fired for being late (true confessions—ugh. Well, I was very young).

She is in the Texas Gulf Coast region that was hit by hurricane Ike last weekend. Things are pretty sad there but she and her husband and our mom and my husband's families are all fine with little damage to their homes. For that we are grateful!

I just found your ideas on the ideas page - 6 months later! I changed the format on my page and suddenly headings appeared that I had never seen before! So sorry I never had a chance to join in with it.

How's things with you now?

I live in New Orleans and in the 70s my mother took me to see the King Tut exhibit at the New Orleans Museum of Art on Lelong Drive. You are one of the few people on the web that mention seeing the exhibit. Wasn't it great! The blue street, the blue lazer beam shining down Esplanade Avenue from the Museum of Art to Broad Street (approx. 1 mile). And, yes, Suze -- it was very cold and exciting. All those people; me and my mother, waiting to see "King Tut" (you could have been there that day!). I am trying to create a scrapbook of memories and I would love to have some pictures from that exhibit at the NO Museum. Do you have any that you can post? Can I purchase? Please reply. Thanks.

One of my lists once had a fun thread where we gave ourselves titles which reflected who and how we were. I dubbed myself the Duchess of Delay....

My most recent quilty effort have been to make some more Cat Mats from some of my strip scraps. These are smallish (about 24x24" or less) quilts that I place where the cats like to nap, esp. my quilts in progress and piles of fabrics! I gathered them up today to wash and couldn't believe all the fluff and hair the cats had left on them! There's enough fluff in my wastebasket to make a small kitten!
