SAVED BY A BRIGHT SPOT

If you have read my last 2 posts, then you know this is not a good week for me. I don't know how I made it through yesterday only to wake up to the car accident. When you are old and sickly, these kind of things make you shake from the inside out. I was headed for bed but thought I'd check the mail first.
I have been saved by Tom, http://quiltingandcarving.blogspot.com/, and not any too soon either! I have always relied on imagination and the world of make believe to get me through life's hard times. Tom sent me the most adorable Fairy fabric today. It made me smile! And that's a good thing considering the down slide I've been on.

I just bought some Kona solid pink so this will make a beautiful pillow with ruffles & lace trim for in my sewing room which I might be able to re-open next week. I've had it closed for the winter because of the cold. Along with this pillow will go the one made by Donna, http://fabricfun-everythingquilts.blogspot.com/, a very good match.

THANK YOU TOM! Without this surprise, I would be in bed..trying to avoid the rest of the week. Instead, I pulled out my art project for April and I'll finish it today.

(good I took this photo, the pole needs to be moved)


Up Date...Finished

ART QUILT JOURNAL for MARCH

A gal on the HGTV site got a group of ladies together to do Art Quilt Journal's. This is our first month to show our first quilt.

I decided to do fashion, sort of a Project Runway through the years.

As you can see, my Gibson Girl is caged..not only in her cage but in her corset.
