Ciao dearhearts!
I have just hfinished my two textile pieces that I have been hand stitching 🧵
These textiles are a mirror for the climate today,
for everything that has been going on..
The Beauty That Remains
Is the piece above and
Crossroads
Below…
Both pieces are mixed media and are completely
hand stitched and framed in black wood frames and
glass..
If you are interested in them please go to

Ciao gentle readers
This has been a very tough month for me..
Don and I have been planning our trip to
Europe in October..
it is a month long trip and there is much to consider.. beyond the
flights, trains and travel detail..
so we had our covid boosters.. and responded as I usually do
with a reaction...
but later I had an intense reaction.
if you are thinking of having the Moderna vaccine,
google moderna Covid 19 vaccine side effects
just an FYI
I have had at least 5 other boosters and none affected me
as this one..

| left over bits from my Textile piece.. |
But the other difficult part of this month is that
I had a failure that I wanted to share.. I don't usually have failures
but this one was spectacular..
I was working on the textile piece and as I was attaching it to
the board to secure it, the papers crumpled as
I pulled it back to edge it..
so above you see the two pieces that I salvaged..
and my intention is to make another work
using those elements.
its devastating to loose all that time and energy..
but
I know now what
WON'T WORK!!
C4N!!
so dear viewers..
I am in the studio, stitching...
it is so very calming..

we so appreciate each one of you!
Ciao, Ciao!!
