Lately...

Let's see...lately I've been doing a lot of this...

Yep, making pretty things.

Happy New Year!

Merry Merry

Whichever holiday you celebrate this month, have a peaceful and joyous holiday season!

Preparing for 2012

I've started dyeing fabric for 2012 after a nice long break.

 It feels good to be busy and have color all over the house when the weather is gray and cool.

Bill on His Own

My DH Bill had his own sales booth at Hendershots:  Coffee, Bar, Misic & Art on Sunday...

His worked looked great and he had some sales! 

Creative Characters

Last weekend our group of ladies gathered at Tracy's house to play with surface design methods.  I carved some simple stamps and most of the ladies printed on linens with their stamps...

This is Mary Ann's hand dyed fabric with print applied.  Isn't it beautiful?

Some of these are Tracy's pieces

These are my prints, including a chop (signature stamp) I made previously

Fun!

Holiday Market

I just love holiday music, decorations, festivities and markets--the whole package.  This year with our Pandora subscription we can listen to all kinds of holiday music online, so the house has been filled with tunes.  My favorite?   Sleigh Ride performed by a symphony orchestra.  Live is even better.

Here are some photos of our booth at the OCAF Holiday Market this weekend.  We're sharing a booth with Catherine Hart; many of the pieces on the back wall are hers...

Bill's rust dyes are framed...

Our wool ornaments are a hit...

This is an original print block that I purchased from Patty Coulter of the Bird's Nest Press.  Love it.
