MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

A little more progress & some announcements (thinly disguised as mumblings!)

I spent much of the weekend working on the final edit of Kathy Shaw's upcoming book "Crazy Quilting Volume 2 - Ribbon Embellishments" and I can highly recommend it!  It's another in her series of really great crazy quilt books and I'm happy to say that, because I'm her proofreader, I get to read them first!!  Lucky me!


 Now, on to what else I did over the weekend...

Two more in the postcard series  


 Today the quote is from Anatole France...."Some succeed because they are destined to; most succeed because they are determined to"

    Oh my, Ann Wood's creations are something else aren't they. Yes, I can see Ann's mosquito fitting in somewhere at your place. How exciting to proofread a new crazy embellishing book. That does sound fun. Loving your new piece of art, Mary Anne.

    I just love your color schemes and stitching.

    Nope, didn't like those mosquitoes at all. Very unusual and pretty artsy, but still a mosquito!.

    Ann's mosquitoes are the only ones I could tolerate, I think, unless, of course someone made some out of gold and jewels..........lol
    Cute postcards.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
