chicken comes homes home to roost – February ufo wrapup
No, it’s not done, nor will it be in five days. But I made significant progress. I painted it, layered the batting and backing and did a great deal of quilting. Then yesterday, I added the chicken prince. Paul and I spent some time with markers, going over the black lines. I think it really …

family craft night
Steve bought this clay for me for Christmas. It is air drying clay. We all sat down together and made objects a couple of days ago. Steve made the beautiful flute. Paul made the mushrooms. Even Eliott made an object. It was fun evening.
