My passion for birds, bluebirds in this case, revealed. Which is your favorite?

In celebration of the season to come I’ve made this mug rug of the star to guide me through the depths of winter. It inspires me to have a cup of something nearby to find warmth in the cold days and. Nights. Cheers!

A crow stands on a pumpkin with the moon casting its shadow.

Reminding you that there is more to life than politics. Make Art for example. Enjoy a glass of wine at a local vineyard. It’s autumn after all. Happy fall y’all.

Hi BlueSky friends! I have been elbow deep in classes this Spring. Now the robins are fledging their first brood and the dandelions are in full bloom. Enjoy the first in a new series of Studies of the American Robin. Punch needle patterns are in the works and other items in design.

I love your statement and your work. So elegant!

Birds: #featheryournest just not with dog hair.

My latest in punch needle rug hooking. A color study and my first geometric pattern, 8 1/2 inches square. Punched with Briggs and Little Rug Yarn using an Oxford No. 10 regular punch needle.

Well done!
