going to baltimore

BYE! we are closing down the blog for a few days. going to b'more to do some visiting. sloth-er has packed her bags to go. looks like all she is bringing is embroidery threads. what else does she need?? she can't wait to visit her cousin, slothy (see below).






we only have a mug shot of slothy. no family photos. it's a long story...you don't want to know.















before sloth-er leaves, she has to mapquest her way.










and now she is out the door, wearing her new crocheted sweater. BYE! see you next week.

luv to draw

my favorite salt 'n peppa shakers make a great subject for a still life.
in the background are works by two of my favorite artists. the button lamp is made by trashy woman, sally willowbee. the paper mache bug is by lancaster, PA artist, tom treadway. unfortunately, you can't see tom's work anywhere on line, but you can buy it here.
