We were tired of living in a house.
So we packed our bags and moved into a city apartment.
The title of this post refers to a favorite childhood book by the same name.
Last night I went to the Society of Illustrators Sketch and Jazz event. Event? It is a twice weekly gathering of people who draw figure models for 3 hours. There is a bar and a live jazz group, bass, sax and piano. The Society has been around for 105 years, it's filled with artwork from the Big'uns and is a great setting.
I went alone and had much flutterings and hesitation beforehand. Afterward, pure skipping and la-de-da happiness.
I came home to a little bulge of an envelope that I am thankful wasn't lost in the sending. The envelope was ripped and pudgy and exciting looking. It contained a lil LaFazio felted wool square among some samples of her fav threads (which I had asked for). It immediately got hung on my sewing room wall. The square doesn't have a name and I am lovingly calling it lil LaFazio.
My snapshots stink and do not do the lil wonder justice.
And have you seen my latest article in Cloth, Paper, Scissors?
CPS is hosting a Mother Earth Doll Challenge and used my doll image to promote it in their newsletter, are you going to participate?
