feathers and flowers


It is rare that I do not have to edit a photo. What I mean by that is darken, lighten, etc.
This Hydrangea flower is just gorgeous...unedited! It was a gift from a neighbor and to me it 
says "New England" like no other flower.


 a close up of this beauty!



This is a peacock looking feather and I am leaving it just the way it is. The white fabric is from the
pillow case that belonged to my grandmother.    http://ancientcloth.blogspot.com/2011/07/summer-afternoons.html
 It is very old and sooo soft to the touch. She would
be pleased to know that it was being used for something to give to children. She loved children so
much!


lastly, working on a stamped crow and two Magic feathers.

Alike and Yet Not!



I am participating in Jude's Magic Feather Project.



I thought it would be fun to start with Jude's black and white feather.

I plan on stitching a few of these little feathers and of course doing a few feathers in my own interpretation.

The feathers that are gathered will go toward a charitable purpose for children. I like that!


This is a wip. The fabrics I am using are sooo special because they were given to me.
The colorful fabrics in the background came from a dear friend in Switzerland. 
The fabrics are Japanese and are being made into a quilt for victims of the recent Tsunami in Japan.





Some hand dyed lovely bits of fabric sent from

A little day time moon....
Summer has flown by in a blink of an eye!
I am trying to relish every moment I can.
Have a lovely day!
