Back in the 1970s I used to make terrariums, and I have been wanting to make one for a while now. Of course the selections of terrarium bottles back then was great. I settled for a large canister/cookie jar. I admit it was much easier to plant than one of the skinny neck ones I used to make. Now I will have to work on getting the climate control correct so that it can maintain itself.

Iced Coffee & Sew Somerset

This afternoon, I made some iced coffee and settled into a comfy wicker chair to read Sew Somerset. It was such a warm beautiful day today, and it gave me the chance to enjoy the screened in porch with two of my favorite things, and two of my favorite 'friends'.

I planted a few spring flowers in hangers along the fence. Here are just two of them.

My Fifteen Minutes of Fame / Article about my Artwork in the Hemet Paper
Erica Shen, a nice young reporter from the Press-Enterprise newspaper, interviewed me this week about my artwork. She had found my work online through this blog, then called to set up an interview. The article appeared in today's paper with black & white photos. The online version has colored photos. I think she did a wonderful job, and if you have time you can read the full article at this link:

Hemet Quilt Show - February 2008
The Hemet quilt show is a wonderful little quilt show. Everyone is given a glove upon entry so that touching the quilts is allowed - and we all know that the urge to touch the quilts is very powerful. It gives you the opportunity to get up real close to the quilts, and to turn them over to look at the backs and stitches. The Valley Quilters ladies are on hand to explain the quilts in such a friendly manner.
