Needs a boost


This new little blog needs a boost...some creative juice. Maybe next week.

I haven't had time to post since I finished the quilt for the Breaking Traditions Art Quilt Exhibit in Michigan. This show is run by Lynn Krawczyk and this year all proceeds from entry fees go to Bernie Berlin's "A Place to Bark" pet rescue in Tennessee. This is a one woman show that takes in and cares for unwanted and abused dogs and cats. Check them out and consider your own donation. Thanks Lynn for all you do.


My entry this year is entitled "Home is Near Reese" Home is the theme and considering that my daughter wants to have her own pet rescue some day, her dog Reese seemed the perfect subject. She told me not long after the theme was announced that she never really felt like she had a "home" out in Cali where she lives until she adopted her baby, Reese. He was a rescued puppy of suspect parentage and the apple of her eye. This little quilt is hers when it makes it back from it's trip to Michigan.
