And Another!!
Happy, happy to have received an Honorable Mention for 'Playing With My Food (and other things)' at the Scrapel Hill Art Contest and Exhibit at University Place in Chapel Hill, NC. The show will continue through November 14, 2015. The theme of this show has always been a focus on art using recycled objects. Very fun to be a part of it!

Honorable Mention!
Twist and Shout received an Honorable Mention (Janet Rhyne Andrews Award*) at the Alamance Artisans Guild's exhibit at the University of North Carolina's William and Ira Friday Center for Continuing Education. What a great surprise :)!
(and so much better than a dishonorable mention...)

Glorious!
This Jelly went to a great home last December...
Jelly No5
wire, hand dyed silk and cloth, beads
and it now swims over a bathtub with a heating vent across the room from it to make it whirl.
I recently received an email from its new Enjoyer and he said, "It's Glorious!".

Detail, Jelly No5
I couldn't ask for a better "gush" than that. I'm so glad.... :)

Roadmaps: the 3-d way!
Just having a little fun with my first quarter roadmap...
Tracking progress 'off paper' (think off-roading) is so much more fun!
When completed tasks are colorful, wiggly fabric bundles and milestones are pipe cleaners with bells on, this beats a checklist all to heck :)

My latest mobile is sans color, but the shadows make up for it.
