mrs. daisy sallow's crocheted diary

while spending lots of time in airports and on planes recently, i had plenty of time to stitch. i have added some entries to my
stitched diary.

i like remembering how white lipstick was so vital to my daily existence. and how, even when i was 14, i loved to spend my money on fabric (material, as we called it).

the taylor porkroll can be seen here. it used to be one of my favorite foods. now that i am a vegetarian, i still think about taylor porkroll from time to time...like thinking of an old boyfriend.

this is what our german shephard puppy looked like. also funny that we named him 'snow!' he really did eat our couch.

why is this entry called 'mrs. daisy sallow's crocheted diary?' why not? do you know who daisy sallow is? many thanks to edward gorey for introducing me to mrs. sallow...a muse!

jumping in museums

where has maggie been? i have been jumping in museums...or rather jumping outside of museums. inspired by one of my favorite
blogs
i went to paris with
bh and i was so excited to be around all of the art that i actually forgot to jump once i got into the museum. bh and i had a romantic time and ate delicious patisserie. it's good to be back. i cleaned my studio and am ready for the new year!
