OBSCESSED WITH BEADING





It's been forever since I've posted. I've been beading and working on a Tee Shirt Quilt.
I found out I am not a quilter. I was very frustrated. Actually, I didn't even finish it. I gave up and returned it to Tracy (my ex-daughter-in-law). I have to remind myself not to accept any requests for quilts again. UG
Give me some beads and I become transformed into another dimension. Go figure!!!
Now that summer is here, life is getting busy. I have three trips planned. I'm going to Valley Ridge this week-end for a Beryl Taylor retreat. I'm taking my granddaughter, Miranda, on a trip to NYC and lake George . My sister lives in NY. I will be spending time with her and my nieces.
At the end of September, Cindy and I are going on a Canadian Cruise with Tim Holtz.
In between my trips there are various events going on in the Chicago area. I'm planning to go to CHA and CREATE.(Mixed Media events).
Still involved with the Live ATC Group, a ledger swap and a bi-monthly get together with artist friends.
Keeping busy and creating is good medicine....
