when friendship, art, work, and inspiration meet it all spills over.

it's good. 

all good.

-yesterday the susans and the ks met at sueb's studio and we had our second sketch-in.

-we are as much alike as we are different and it's fun to sit side by side with such talented gals and share.

-just to keep it from getting too serious i worked my sketch with my smencils.

-nope, that wasn't a typo. smencils are scented pencils.

-they are great, fun, # 2 pencils made of recycled paper.

love them!

-after that, i met up with a freind/client who i did some quilting for.

-our eyes nearly spilled over as she shared a story with me and i'll be thinking about her today.

-then i did some last minute work on the garden quilt.

-nature spilled over into the sketchbook and then onto fabric.

-with only a few thread deatails left this project will be finished.

-and then i got together with some more talented gals and the quilting inspiration was spilling over in all directions.

-all bring something different to the table and i love it all from those who can sew perfectly straight seams  to those that can match color like nobody's business. 

-love it and glad to be part of it.

-i messed around with an applique pattern i want to start.

-i used the magic mirror and sue's templates to work out some ideas.

-on the tips of the tree this morning i noticed the tiniest of buds.

-soon they will be spilling over with leaves

and

i. can't. wait.

-happy spring.
