This is a celebration of arriving home (2 weeks ago!)
I'm really looking forward to Jude's boro class that's starting Wed! So I've assembled a pile of fabrics as well as some of the already made squares for my grandson's quilt, which I'm hoping to subject to the techniques we learn:
And lastly, this morning after walking Agnes, I noticed these spider webs...I've seen them a million times before but never observed the lines that provide structure from above...my eyes are getting older, but I'm seeing more.
That's all for now.
wow. those spider webs are amazing. don't you wish you could preserve it somehow. i guess the photo is the only way.
ReplyDeleteHi Deanna...it's a regular tent of spider-wizardry!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous little pieces! And I am a lifelong lover of spider webs; that's for that lovely picture.
ReplyDeleteThanks Angelle! I'd be curious to know what kind of spider makes these...
ReplyDeleteoh, I'm always so fond of your bees! It's always nice to see something that was there before but you hadn't noticed. I admire spiders, they're such good weavers.
ReplyDeleteI must tell you something for I think you will understand. Yesterday I found a dead pigeon in my garden. I was shocked because two pigeons have visited my garden ever since we have lived here. They are always together. So I hope it's not one of them, because I'm rather fond of my little bird friends. As I was burrying the diceased pigeon under my rose bush another pigeon flew over my garden and called out loud.
fabulous bees!
ReplyDeleteDear Sandra, I'm sorry to hear about the pigeon...it was good of you to bury it...it probably chose that spot, knowing you would care for it. Your story reminds me of something I saw right after my step-father's funeral service years and years ago. A pigeon had been struck down by a car and died in the street just outside the church. As we walked past another pigeon flew down and stayed for awhile with the dead one. It was very touching. They are wonderful birds and seem to care about each other.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marie!
ReplyDeleteHi Suzanna! I'm way behind on blogworld these days, but just wanted to stop by. I love your busy bees very much, and I love the stories here about pigeons ~ so very sweet and touching. I'm glad I stopped by. Have fun in Jude's class, and I'll be back by and by. xo Kari

ReplyDeletethe turquoise bee if it is still available???

Hi Kari...it's always so good to hear from you...I hope the work on the house is going ok. Blogworld patiently awaits your return!
ReplyDeleteHi Grace...yes, still available! A little later today I'm going to activate them in the shop and add some more...about 2:00 my time...(want to add some finishing touches).
ReplyDeleteAaaaah, how big (sorry: small) are your bees ???
ReplyDeleteHi Els...bee on blue is 2" across the middle, the bee on red is about 4" and the third one is 3.75 x 4.75 (it's just flown off to Grace!) I guess the photos don't really relate to the real dimensions...someday I'll have to try to figure that one out...
ReplyDeleteHi Suzanna - your homecoming celebration piece is so evocative to me - of richness, fertility and hope. Beautiful. Gilly
ReplyDeleteHi Gilly...thank you! That's exactly how I felt after the trip...a good feeling for a new year...
ReplyDeleteA different Gilli here, I love your bees, well all of your work actually. Your blog is very inspiring. Your photos very lovely. See you in class!
ReplyDeleteHi Gilli with an 'i'! Thanks so much for stopping by...I'm excited about this class...in fact am in process right now of clearing out stuff so there is more room to work!
