Normally I am not a cutesy kind of person
But. . .I do very much honor tradition
So,
Once upon that time when I paid a visit to that wonderful store Lacis in Berkeley and after buying most wonderful items found with great difficulty right there and no place else upon this earth I wandered down the street. Antiques for sale said that sign that brought me inside to find a wonderful tattered very used and soon to be treasured (again) crazy quilt. This crazy quilt is obviously made by a real American woman who used little bits of her treasures to savor for many other eyes in many other times.
This hangs in my upstairs studio that I use in the winter months. It is snowing again today and to cheer myself I choose to share this along with something I am working on at the moment waiting for spring to show it's pretty little head. A contemporary take on crazy quilting of my own is in progress. Soon I get to the good part which is the embroidery. I hope this little bit of a story brings something nice to you or you can come along for a mad tea party where this is down the rabbit hole.
We will have such a nice time.
Oh yes, I forgot to tell you that I really really did have a wolf at my front door the other day.
