Easter

I finally put together a small Easter vignette...

I sketched the Bunny from a graphic I found online.  

Thank you to whoever posted it!

Sister's Quilt

I spent last week with my sister, Judy, in Iowa.  Judy has been diagnosed with 

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma, a very rare form of cancer.  

Her friend, Amy Barta, came by with the most beautiful quilt she made for Judy 

and I want to share it with you.

 As you can see, Judy loves blue!  I wish you could see it in person, it is amazing!

Check out Amy's blog, A Quilting Sheep, to see more of her gorgeous quilts!  

Be sure to check out her Swoon Quilt, one of my favorites!

Thank you, Amy, for being such a good friend to Judy!

Simple Things

This past Sunday, I impulsively hopped on the train to visit my friend in Ft. Worth.
Of course, our first stop was to visit Simple Things.  If you have never been, and you happen to be in FtW, be sure to make a mad dash to their new Warehouse/Showroom!  It is spectacular!

The space is huge and their design team does a beautiful job styling their unique furniture and found objects.

(I was very close to crawling into this bed with my book and cup of coffee.)

As their name suggests, Simple Things is so good at taking ordinary objects 

and styling them so you see their beauty.  These old salt/pepper shakers

piled into an old wooden bowl….that's all you need.

If you can't make it to FtW, be sure to follow them on their blog, Instagram, Pinterest and/or Facebook.  

So much INSPIRATION!!

Postcards From Germany

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! 

I'm starting to get back into the swing of things.

We had a wonderful time in Germany…

especially seeing our daughter.

And got to see some amazing art too!

Now, I'm back to work at Anthropologie, prepping canvases 

for an upcoming show, and just living life.

Glad to be home!

MERRY, MERRY

Wanted to wish you all a Happy Holiday!

I will be in Germany visiting my daughter and 

will not be back until New Years.

(my minimal Christmas decorations this year)

See you next year!

Thankful

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

Planes, Trains and Automobiles
Perfect time to watch this again, one of my all-time favorites!

Glitter Market Time!

Don't forget, THIS SATURDAY is the 

HOLIDAY GLITTER MARKET

 at PAPER CROWN!

Unfortunately, I will not be there with my art, but I will be there to support my friends and fellow artists!
