Happy Weekend!!!
It's been a long week here. The house is packed up, everything goes into storage and we're off to L.A. to visit family, then off to the New Hampshire, of all places!, to help with grand daughters and new grand baby. My head is spinning.
I hope when I'm in L.A. to be able to visit Christen Brown and take a class or two. OOps!! I was just looking online at Christen's local class schedule and I noticed that she is giving classes in San Diego, CA not, and I repeat, not in L.A.. So I probably won't be able to take her local classes, unless I fly to San Diego. Of course I could take one of her online courses easily, I'll check those out now.
She is, however still, the Embroidery Woman Extraordinaire.

I will keep posting because there is so much color out there to share and after all color is 'the thing.'
My Baby Lock and 32 yr. old Pfaff will go into storage, I will miss them. They're so capable and dependable, nothing fancy, but I like the challenge of using what I have, what I am, my view point, to make art and quilts. I was born an artist and trained in art and I look at my quilting through those eyes. I'm taking hand quilting and stitching projects along with me. Even though I might not have a lot of time for stitching at least it will be there to touch and look at.
Off to 'where no man has gone before!' That's a little dramatic, I know. Sorry.
I'll be looking for color to share and stopping in to see what you're all doing.
Because that's where the fun is!
You're moving? I must have missed that along the way. Do you have a place to go or are you looking? I can't imagine having to put all my things in storage because I know that the very thing I needed most desperately would be packed away. Good luck on your travels!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary Ann.
DeleteYes,moving. We're going to stay in the east coast with family for a while and see what turns up. We'll come back here, all our stuff is here.
Good luck on this big adventure; I look forward to your posts from LA. I'm glad to know too that you'll still be stitching in some shape or form.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kaja. I'll keep posting, the adventure begins!
DeleteHave a safe journey and a good adventure!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Queenie, I'll keep checking in to see your projects.
DeleteHave a safe journey and a wonderful trip! I've been meaning to visit and leave a comment or two...and it turns out you're not there (literally) but how fun to begin an adventure and one that starts with a grandbaby! How lucky can a grandma get?!
ReplyDeleteStitching on the road is easy, just keep the stuff you need in a small bag in your seat. (It doesn't matter how you're traveling, you'll have a seat.) If you're on a plane, your seatmate will discretely slide to the other side when you get the needle out--a bit more space is always nice! Seriously, enjoy the adventure and the grandbaby snuggles!
Thanks Mary, I'll enjoy myself.
DeleteHope you have a grand adventure! If you don't have a definite place to be, come to Japan!
ReplyDeleteI'll consider that, Pamela, you always have good ideas!
ReplyDeleteoh my...adventure awaits!! I hope you have a fantastic trip. When we were in LA we got a train to San Diego...it didn't take long?? it was certainly shorter than airport check in and flight time....I know you will enjoy every second with your grand children...xx
