1+1=love

A happy first day of December.  I woke to our second day of snow, it being our second round as the snow of 2 weeks ago has since melted.  This one may go too if the forecast of rain has anything to do with it.



An early morning shot casts a pink glow over the new snow.

Doesn't the tool shed look  quaint and romantic in this winter wonderland.

I'm pleased to show you this latest effort with photo transfer and embroidery on the chocolately wool felt I made from a jacket that was meant to be used for a teddy bear- still to come...  It's so rare to find such a charming  photo to use,  the baby so intense,  and the little pig, too,  with tail held high.  You can find this piece that I've title  "1+1=love"  in my shop this evening.

The weekend is soon upon us and December will fly by I know.  After my first internet sale last week(thanks to you-know-who-you-are),  I am feeling more optimistic and eager to dive into new ideas. I hope to have something to show you next week.  In the meantime, thank you to Lorraine Young Pottery for coming on board as my latest "follower".

Til next time, I wish you a peace in your heart that spreads out to the whole world.









Song of the East

We are into it now- the richness of summer. The leaves on the trees are lush, the blossoms have fallen from the blackberry and raspberry bushes as their green hulls incubate their berry goodness.  Our cultivated flowers are sparse having made lovely appetizers for our deer visitors, but the wildflowers abound.

I have returned to an earlier piece you can see  below in my June 20th post entitled On the Edge of Solstice in its beginning stage, and have pronounced it finished!   It is a piece that makes me infinitely happier than my last attempt, and so it has gone directly into my etsy shop to which I invite you for a more detailed account and closer detail shots.

Song of the East

I can hear thunder rumbling in the distance even though it is sunny and warm here.

I will leave you with my wish for joy in your heart and peace in your thoughts.
