I have had this painting for quite some time. I love the colors. But I have had the hardest time photographing anything in my apartment. There is never good lighting, try as I may. The yellow and green background are brighter and it is a happy painting. It goes with my new colors I remodeled with. I love the citrus tones. </div>

Not too long ago I found this fabric at Joannes. It is a HGTV Home Decor fabric and I fell in love with it. Again with my lighting issues these photos are a tad brighter than it really is, but once I got it home it was amazing to see how well it matched this painting. The painting has some teal in it and there is the same teal in the fabrics. Not a normal color combination but I keep getting drawn to it. So I am making a few accessories for the living area. It feels so good to be creating again:)</div>

Wow it is September, and this is a very good thing. This is officially the busiest summer I have ever had. I have missed blogging, sewing and anything creative. Though, it has been worth it all! My boss bought a new building and we had the BIG move to make. Moving an office is not a job for the faint of heart. But more on that later.... I also went through a remodel in my apartment. In hindsight it would have been much easier to move! I had to move everything out of my bedroom and studio so new carpet could be put in. Then everything had to be moved from the rest of the place back in the two rooms so the wood floors could be put in, THEN it all had to be unpacked and put away. I did get new furniture and did some painting. Now that it is all done I am ready to relax and enjoy the fall weather and holidays. Cant wait to start creating again.</div>

I have been lucky enough to be in some local shops over the years. One of the very best things you can do to help your sales and stand out from your competition is to create unique display settings. I think this is really important at craft shows as well. I have always had a very unique style and the two terms used the most to describe it is "pink" or "Gail-ish" :) But drawing the crowds eye your way is worth the effort. Using object that have been reinvented or in a different way is fun.</div>

With this being a new year, I am full of new ideas and changes that will be totally new for me. My job really takes up so much of my time, but very blessed to have it and even more blessed that I LOVE it. Even so I have been doing some event planning. I really have fun with that and it fits into a business plan I have been working on for a couple years. So we will see what the Universe has in store with that dream. But I have been sketching some Art Dolls. I think they are a very original idea and I cant wait to share them. I just need to get this off the ground first. I just dont want to give away my idea yet. :) But, this is what got me thinking about displays. I want to incorporate my dolls and bears into a wonderland display all their own. Its an exciting prospect. I just hope to find more time to balance my work and my creative dreams!</div>

I have been feeling pretty good and on top of things this Holiday. My daughter is happily married, my job is going well and my family is well and healthy. I got my tree up early this year. In fact it is the first year I have had one up in a few years. These are a few of the ornaments that I have made over the years and I always love getting them out and seeing them. I love all the ornaments I have collected over the years. Many are hand made by friends as well. Its neat to remember each ornaments story.<br />

But its been a quiet weekend. I have been watching some holiday shows. The sad news has been heart breaking and I cant stand to watch the TV coverage or be on Facebook. I get angry at some of the posts. The election process was bad enough. I honestly think it is time to just turn it all off for now, sit quietly and keep these families in my thoughts and prayers. This is my favorite ornament of all. My pink Angel. We got this when I was about 6 years old back in the 60's. The same age as most of the little Angels that were lost. I hope these families find some Peace in the coming year.<br />

I just got home from my daughters wedding. What a whirlwind Thanksgiving weekend. Aprils new husband Mike made the Thanksgiving dinner and this guy is no slouch in the kitchen. (Way to go April :) ) The wedding was today and it was just beautiful. The weather was perfect and the location was so pretty, you didnt even feel like you were in the desert! (( Warning, lots of pictures ))<br />
<br />
Their wedding was held at the Wright House in Mesa and the grounds are just beautiful.<br />

AND last but not least, the cake table and reception. April made the banner that says YOU and ME on the picket fence. My sister painted the tree for the guest book. The guests put their thumb prints on it and signed them. I thought it was cute and VERY April :)<br />

April asked me to make her flowers. I have made many of the fabric flowers in various styles, but have used them more as embellishments. I am not a floral designer at all, BUT I took the project on. We were looking online and saw some pretty things, but they were about $250.00 for the bridal bouquet. I was being rather full of myself and saying that I may be in the wrong business. Well, let me tell you, they earn that money! This was very labor intensive, it took hours. And not only that, I do not have the temperment to work with Brides, so I will be keeping my day job after all :) . I know its your very special day, you are spending ALOT of money and deserve everything to be just as you have imagined it since you were a little girl. It takes a very special person to work on the other end of that scenario though, and I am not it! lol In the end though, I am happy with them, and more important April is happy with them.<br />

She is going with more of a nature theme, birds, birdhouses, twigs and the such. Instead of a traditional ring bearer pillow she is using a birdnest. :) They will have the traditional Unity candle and will be lighting one for my grandson Mikey too. I love this idea. (By the way, we seem to have an over abundance of Michaels in our family and it keeps things interesting and funny) So, here is a sneak peak at what I have been up to this last week. <br />
<br />
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, I am wishing ya all good health, happiness and peace in your Home. <br />

This was such a fun day. <a href="http://www.imagimeris.blogspot.com/">Meri</a> is a friend of mine and has host the Arizona Bloggers Luncheon for the last two years. She does an amazing job and we have so much fun. We have a wonderful lunch, we have a fun time playing games and we even get gifts!!! Meri knows how to throw a party. But the best part of all is she always has a project for us. This year we made Christmas wreaths from vintage ornaments. Her studio is adorable and full of vintage things. I think you could be there two weeks and not see everything! <br />

Meri is an amazing artist. She creates so many amazing things, but I love her paper clay sculptures. Be sure to visit her blog and see more of her art. Here are a few photos of our get together, Meris blog and a few of the wreaths that were created. Mine is the pink and aqua colored one. ( suprise suprise )<br />

I have been wanting to learn how to make purses using the metal frames. On Sunday my friend Judy and my sister got together and tackled this cute little coin purse. The purse itself is simple but the frame part took a little patience and practice. Now that I have made one I am pretty sure they will be much easier. It was a lot of fun and I cant wait to make some more. Mine is the cherry one and the blue print is Judys and my sisters is the leopard print :)<br />

I have been experiencing something very interesting. It is either very awesome, or nothing at all. It started a couple months ago while online hopping from blogs to pinterest to everywhere magical in between. I dont even remember where, but I can along a post about Angels and white feathers. I said if a white feather falls at your feet, it is to let you know your Angel is watching and protecting you. I have never really thought much about Angels. Not bad or good, just hasnt came up in my thoughts often and had not formed any particular beliefs. This passage must have stuck somewhere in the back recesses of my already over crowded mind.<br />
<br />
My first experience was early one morning while I was pet sitting. I was out on their covered patio. The dogs running around and me deep in thought. I was contemplating my job. I love love love my job, but to be honest I was needing to make more money. While I was sitting there, out of the blue a small white feather came floating down at my feet. I did notice it, but didnt give it too much thought until I got to work. One of my co workers was giving her two week notice. I was so sorry to see my friend leaving us, but it left me with the opportunity to get a raise.<br />

<br />
My next experience was concerning my sweet cat Annie. She got sick very fast and within two days I was taking her to the vet to be put down. The vet wanted to run a couple tests first. Turned out Annie was very diabetic. Her blood sugar was over 600. They put her on glucose and IV's and had me leave her there until 5pm. I had a perscription for insuline and she was perking up. I had car problems and was waiting on a tow truck to get me to Discount Tire so I could run these errands and pick up my little Annie. I was getting frustrated with the tow truck, they were very late. At 2pm I went outside to see if maybe they were driving around looking for me. I looked at the clock and know it was 2pm. As I walked out this white feather floated down and landed at my feet. I picked it up and put it in my purse. While sitting at Discount, the vet called me with some bad news. She said at 2 oclock Annie started having respitory problems, they had her on a ventilater and giving her CPR. I had to let her go.<br />
<br />
The third time was this week. At work, we have a Marketing/PR lady in our office who has been swamped. We were toying around with the idea of me helping her out part time. I was driving on an errand for work, thinking about if this would really be too much. We are swamped at my job too, and I am missing creating so much and want to find time for new designs. Sitting at a stop light, I kid you not, I see something falling out of the sky. As it got closer, it was a white feather floating down and landed right by my car door where I was sitting!<br />
<br />
I see white feathers almost every day now. This is just three stories. But they make me happy. I dont see these as "good luck" or "your wish came true". Its simpy the thought that no matter what happens, good luck, the loss of a loved one, just know someone is watching over you. I put the feather that floated at my feet when Annie went into respitory failure at 2pm in this cylinder and made a necklace to always remember.<br />

I am something of a paranormal geek. I dont speak much of it often. You never know how people will react to a different way of seeing things. But taking some photos this morning I was out back. I took a picture of the cats at the screen door. I see this face!!! It is probably the dirt pattern on the screen, but its kind of cool. Soooo,,, Angels or a lot of pigeons!!!

I cant believe how long its been since I have posted. Its been crazy busy with my new job, well kind of new. I guess I have already been there for 6 months. I am so amazingly lucky. I love my job. Never mind getting up and going in. I used to spend my whole Sunday miserable because I new I had to go to work the next day. But not anymore. Sundays are awesome. I work with awesome people too. But the one piece missing is creating. I have been working hard in my mind, but havent done much of it in reality. Its now time to start again. And what better motivation???? I got my daily email from HSN for the Todays Special, back on August 2. This Singer machine is not on the market yet. The mfg retail price with the added feet will be 979. But they had it for 379. AND offered it with 5 flex pays of 75. I didnt wait 1/2 second to order this deal. This was in the middle of the day and there was still a lot left, but the next day I got the dreaded "Back Order" email. I was devastated. I had given up all hope and got an email friday that it had been shipped!!! Happy Dance. I had it delivered to work and waited for the UPS man like a kid waiting for Santa Clause. Just as soon as I got in the door I had it unpacked and reading the manuel. There is a open toe foot and can drop the feed dog so I can do thread painting soooo much easier and with much more freedom. There is a gathering foot, a serger foot and many many more. I cut out a blouse for myself this last weekend and cant wait to sew it up.<br />

My sister crocheted this afgan for me and my new living room decor:) I love these colors. They are my favorites. I will always be a "70's" girl. So,,,, I wont be away for long, I hope to have so much to show and tell soon. <br />gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-67172474621482343952012-06-30T22:48:00.003-07:002012-06-30T22:48:42.925-07:00More Re-doing and Organizing<br />

Now that I have moved my studio back in my spare room, I am reclaiming my living room and dining room. I have been cleaning closets, cabinets and drawers. Its been awesome getting rid of so much of the clutter. If you dont love it or its not useful, toss it out or find a new home for it! My new mantra:) My sister bought herself a new 55 in TV, so she very generously gave me her "old" Tv. Its awesome, finally getting into the 21st century. Its my first flat screen Tv. I am so lucky. I love the color yellow. I am going with the cirtrus colors with my re-do. So I got to bring my "Bunny Hutch" back to my living room. I love the colors. I am also working on making my patio a pretty and peaceful place to spend some time. Its just way too hot to plant flowers now, but I have started on that project too. At least I have a table and chairs, and they are in my happy colors. Hopefully I will have more to share very soon. \<br />

<br />We have a local quilt shop called "Quilters Ranch" Every year they have a garage sale. Its an amazing sale and the proceeds go to the Peanut Butter and Jelly Food Drive. They have books and patterns for as low as one and two dollars. I got these bundles of fabric for two dollars per bundle! I just can not wait to get back into the studio and create!<br /> gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-79956517860470606452012-06-22T08:03:00.003-07:002012-06-22T08:03:38.742-07:00Third Time The Charm ?<br />

I have been away from blogging for a bit. I have been going through this whole "starting over" thing and while its a very good thing, there are growing pains. Starting over at 53 is not for the faint of heart either. My new job is going very well, but starting at the bottom again has caused me to have to make some huge and hard decisions. I just havent been able to do very much creating. I had made the decision earlier to pull out of two of the three shops I was in. Then came the hardest decision of all. I let go of my website. Of all the things I have changed or given up this was the very hardest. I loved that little shop. I had my studio in my living area of my apt. I was fun and practical at a time when I was creating everyday, but when I wasnt it was a cluttered mess and a reminder of all I was leaving behind. SO for the third time since I have been in this residence I moved my little pink studio back into the spare bedroom. Its my favorite of all. I love it. My living room and dining room seem so spacious and clean and uncluttered. I love that too. These arent the best photos, but you can get the idea. I am on a major mission this summer. I am going through every closet, cabinet, cupboard and drawer. I have hauled out trash, donated and given away quite abit so far. Then when this project is complete and I have a new fresh start I will be back in my little pink studio creating again. AND I cant wait. <br />

Its been crazy busy around here. I am working long hours. But its awesome, because I really like my job. We had a wine mixer networking event at work and I made a couple of things from my Pinterest collections:) I made kabobs with angel food cake and strawberries and drizzled them with chocolate. Then I took raspberrys and put a chocolate chip in them. So cute. Its a wealth of great ideas on Pinterest.<br />

If you are looking for something fun and easy to do while hanging out and watching TV, this is a fun idea. Find a fabric with a graphic you like, preferable a larger pattern. Put batting and a layer of muslin behind it and put it in a quilting hoop. Hand quilt around the designs and then you can embellish with sequins and beads. They make pretty pillows.<br />

We started a weight loss challenge at my office. I was given a pedometer from my friend Ronda. I am super excited. I walk a lot in my office each day and it was over 6000 steps and I came home and went for my walk. I walked over 10, 000 steps today!! On the 31 of this month, it will be one year since my hip replacement surgery. I cant believe its been a year, but also one year ago today it was a dream that I would ever have been able to walk 10,000 steps. I am doing well with the challenge and cant wait to shed some pounds!! Stay tuned for my progress:) Have a great week. gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-31529923144037101442012-05-06T14:11:00.002-07:002012-05-06T14:14:23.649-07:00This is SERIOUS Fun<br />

I have been addicted to Pinterest for some time now. There I said it!!! :) And I dont care! Its eye candy to sooth the sole. But this weekend I started playing around with Polyvore.com . You can create endless outfits with all of the dreamy accessories you could every want! I just start creating a look, and when its all done I see the page with the links to purchase these treasures, and I have learned I have some very expensive taste!!! This gorgeous frilly, ruffly summer dress you see is an Alexander Mcqueen dream that is just over $9,000.00. The gorgeous pink drop earrings in the set with with dress trousers and the sweet pink blouse are from Tiffanys and $950.00. !!! :) The only down side, is when you get up from the computer to head out for the grocery store, I find I look like a schlump. Something to aspire to,,, A well dress woman.<br />
Hopefully this next week I will have something a little more exciting to write about, its been crazy, but good, busy this last week.<br />

On the first friday of each month, the city of Phoenix has an awesome event called First Fridays. It started many years ago and has grown and become a very popular and fun thing to do! There are now over 70 art galleries, venues and shops that participate. I believe you can still get a current map at the Phoenix Art Museum and spend a pretty evening out. No matter what style of Art you prefer, you will be sure to find something you love and hopefully want to take home. Many restuarants along the way for dinner or a glass of wine. <br />

This Friday, the 4th of May, my friends at The Eden Garden House are participating. They are a little off the normal routes, but well worth the visit. There shop is showcasing a new Photographer and will be from 6 to 8 ish. There are many local artist at Eden Garden House, including hand cast stone sculptures for planting flowers or plants, paintings, jewelry and much more. Focusing on Garden Inspired design. They are located on 7th ave, just north of Thomas, on the west side of the street. St Joseph Hospital is right across the street. Hope to see you there!gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-82049292139575069302012-04-17T21:14:00.000-07:002012-04-17T21:14:04.786-07:00The Cats Meow =^.^=<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioue7g_Nx4zRRolltBSyIRbdFiD9hRej8rn3UX5lG-7VE7lqC5_Of55bw-FIaowoLmPKRW8OZr2-rK-9JX_vx73Mlc47mFPpNEcslv10w0mNCK-NwaxKcDW1UNT0MkdDql5XAyM4QNy2JZ/s1600/Pookie+004.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" qda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioue7g_Nx4zRRolltBSyIRbdFiD9hRej8rn3UX5lG-7VE7lqC5_Of55bw-FIaowoLmPKRW8OZr2-rK-9JX_vx73Mlc47mFPpNEcslv10w0mNCK-NwaxKcDW1UNT0MkdDql5XAyM4QNy2JZ/s400/Pookie+004.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />

My cats have not been too happy with my new schedule. They dont even see me off at the door anymore, or are waiting for me when I get home. After I have been home for a bit, they are back to their normal selves. When I came home the other day Pookie was sound asleep on the chair and could care less I was home, in fact seemed a little put out I woke him up. Then this last weekend my friend Phyllis gave me a whole bunch of awesome fabric and I spent the whole day sorting all of my fabric, laces and trims. Googars definetly was in the mood to help. So I am organized and ready to start creating. But, I love them like crazy still. gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-73741775066894339172012-04-10T07:56:00.000-07:002012-04-10T07:56:13.559-07:00Garden Inspired<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisxUo-QbP8AmUJw8fKv9ggo0psPCg_hg7SaLBTIdZNI0bGC-4LanUo41PfyZtdTpzGcE5T1wq46OgEGVRZnSvqsV6nqovuCWXbYLoKuxrxVSENUoyVYUyucajXiX2On4VlZeCZorkKaIMP/s1600/briarpatch+marketplace+153.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" nda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisxUo-QbP8AmUJw8fKv9ggo0psPCg_hg7SaLBTIdZNI0bGC-4LanUo41PfyZtdTpzGcE5T1wq46OgEGVRZnSvqsV6nqovuCWXbYLoKuxrxVSENUoyVYUyucajXiX2On4VlZeCZorkKaIMP/s400/briarpatch+marketplace+153.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br />

I actually had to give in and turn the Air on last night for a few minutes to cool my place off a bit. There is a short window of time where there are a lot of flowers blooming everywhere. Unfortunately they dont make it much past June, but we enjoy them while we can. This last weekend was my daughters birthday and Easter, so we had lots of celebrating and having fun. I made April this purse for her birthday. She has been wanting me to make her one for a very long time. It took longer than I planned, but doesnt it always. lol But the important thing is she really likes it. I think it looks better in person, not too happy with the photos. Since I am now working full time plus some, I havent had too much time to create anything. But tax season is about over and I look forward to my free time to get back into sewing. My friends and I took a night out for some stress relief to paint ceramics at our local As You Wish Studio and I wanted to paint some flowers to remember the pretty ones I have in my containers for now. Have a great week and take time to enjoy the flowers!!! gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-52938526174054812772012-04-04T21:44:00.000-07:002012-04-04T21:44:06.011-07:00Happy Easter =^.^=<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibJmY42LoUcyFyZFf7YdMftdCeoKenIhScNeN-PYoGKFGGTcW7MFQpH6VPeBC1k7QE9u3Uy3307w99IDkGCKgyV5WO6Re3MbfeONd1cE21N1RWxEZX6OLG7MQD94qdoyRcGBVP5XnmrUFB/s1600/briarpatch+marketplace+145.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" nda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibJmY42LoUcyFyZFf7YdMftdCeoKenIhScNeN-PYoGKFGGTcW7MFQpH6VPeBC1k7QE9u3Uy3307w99IDkGCKgyV5WO6Re3MbfeONd1cE21N1RWxEZX6OLG7MQD94qdoyRcGBVP5XnmrUFB/s400/briarpatch+marketplace+145.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />

That ship has sailed.:) So, I have been making a lot of changes over the last three weeks. I have left Target and I started working full time at the Tax Goddess. I am really happy to say that I am going to be staying on permanently. I think it will vary between part time and full time depending on the time of the year, but I enjoy working there so much. Of course this time of year is full blown tax season, so its pretty busy and I am coming home so tired. Thats OK, but I am not getting much creating done. But all in good time. Things are falling into place very nicely. So, I dont have much to share, but I made some cupcakes to take to work. Thats a little creative I guess. I am looking forward to celebrating EAster this weekend with my Grandkids. Its also my daughter and best friends birthday too. I hope you have a great family celebration as well. May you all get chocolate Easter Bunnies in your baskets!gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-91832296143704664072012-03-25T16:41:00.000-07:002012-03-25T16:41:59.652-07:00Its Spring and New Beginnings<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkNTubWprNZOlMmGm6Ly9JPTE9h0xPdzvbU8Mm1Taw7XEEFilCfugPl7A3D4XD28rda_4HCSounbp-MuzKTgCgGLbTC-tEQQUCGu2slscxr3-B4FJWt4bOcEkyWqSsra4FUJQAf_2l38zk/s1600/briarpatch+marketplace+116.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkNTubWprNZOlMmGm6Ly9JPTE9h0xPdzvbU8Mm1Taw7XEEFilCfugPl7A3D4XD28rda_4HCSounbp-MuzKTgCgGLbTC-tEQQUCGu2slscxr3-B4FJWt4bOcEkyWqSsra4FUJQAf_2l38zk/s400/briarpatch+marketplace+116.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br />

I know I had at least 50 new pairs and have taken them to the shops I am in. I totally forgot to take any pictures though! I forgot to take my necklaces though so I was able to get a few pictures of them.<br />
<br />
This was a week of many good byes and the start of new beginnings. My last day at Target was on Wednesday. I will miss all of my friends very much, but already feel so much less stress. I wont go into details and bore you, but lets just say, as frustrating as it is to call a call center, just know its not as easy of a job. :) I have also been a member of Make Mine Pink for 6 years now and due to some health issues it will be closing down for a while. I know this was an incredibly hard decision for Joyce to make, I will miss everyone so much. But her health and healing from her surgery is the most important thing to all of us. But its weird, I have been going to Make Mine Pink everyday for years and these ladies have become very good friends, even as far as my friend Caroline in England. I know we will stay in touch and Joyce will be back stronger and better than ever. :) I have spent the weekend spring cleaning and getting ready to start a new life Monday!!! I am working temporarily at a CPA office and love it. Awesome people and a great place to work. I will be now be spending all of my extra hours getting my samples ready to show at a local quilt shop to teach. I also hope to be spending some more time at Eden Garden House.<br />

They were having an estate sale. The owner had lost a very good friend who left her all of her sewing treasures. There were sewing machines, sergers, patterns, books and more fabric than you can imagine. I know all of the proceeds were going to cancer research. I was able to find a few things I just could not leave behind. I love Elenor Peace Bailey Dolls, so I was happy to find some of her patterns.<br />

The more I look at this fabric, the more I love it. I need to get more. These are my favorite colors and I love them when they are presented together. (Please forgive the wrinkles!) Well, I hope you all have a great new spring week ahead. I know I am looking forward to my new beginnings:) gailhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03377043892646115876noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-692785796489988641.post-47338169926975623382012-03-19T12:44:00.000-07:002012-03-19T12:44:31.307-07:00Briar Patch Market Place<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisoLULAt0htqt1mgJeAmMWlcdl56a-1IVVFsE2bK8FaJnKpQI11DyvTS1KsJbq7tA8ebUz1vwMyQFCj3J5pRONPXdyWxfgDWXll_7Y2DoSTqroaYOcRPkC0Qoq83-LSB_DTpvFQEqaz58r/s1600/briarpatch+marketplace+032.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img aea="true" border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisoLULAt0htqt1mgJeAmMWlcdl56a-1IVVFsE2bK8FaJnKpQI11DyvTS1KsJbq7tA8ebUz1vwMyQFCj3J5pRONPXdyWxfgDWXll_7Y2DoSTqroaYOcRPkC0Qoq83-LSB_DTpvFQEqaz58r/s400/briarpatch+marketplace+032.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />

This is such an awesome show and has some of the best vendors and artist. Jeannie has been holding this show for over 20 years and has a huge following. This last weekend we were out in Chandler at Hamilton High School. There are still a few shows on the spring calendar and they will be going back to Prescott in July (July 21 and 22). This is a great place to visit in AZ in the summer. It would be a great weekend trip to plan. I really hope to be doing this show!<br />
This is my sweet friend Phyllis, her work is just gorgeous and she is very talented. She is know for using vintage chenille bedspreads and created adorable childrens items such as quilts, bibs, teddys, and lots of items for grown up girls too!<br />

Eden Garden House is a great shop and in a great location, in the art district. I am really excited to be putting some of my newest creations in this shop. I will also be teaching some classes in the near future, so I will keep you posted here. Rosalind and her daughter, Morgan, have created a garden inspired place to showcase local artist. The offer many services including interior design consultations and children workshops on saturdays. The kids have so much fun creating and painting their own pots and then learning how to take care of their plants. I look forward to being able to share more on this great shop in the future.<br />

This is a few of my new projects I have been working on. I have been getting so much done and it has been so much fun. I have been having so much fun with the paper shoes and I tried something new for a pillow. I drew the bike on the fabric and then machine stitched it. Embellished with roses and handmade lace flowers and leaves.<br />
I hope you have a great spring~ish weekend!

Its been crazy busy. I took on a part time temp job in an accounting firm. I really enjoy it, but that, working my regular job, pet sitting and teaching I am TIRED!!! :) But its all good. Just more steps in the right direction. I did get over to visit Tillies though and they have some exciting news in their store. The Quilting Corner is now inside Tillies giving classes and providing long arm quilting services. Lynn Keatley is one of the instructors and will be teaching Beginning Quilting, Paper Piecing and even Open Sew Days. Diana Jones is available for your long arm quilting needs. The Quilting Corner is also a supporter of Quilts Of Valor. " <span style="font-size: 11px;">The mission of the Quilts of Valor Foundation is to cover ALL combat servicemembers and veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor.

A lot of my creations lately have been in shades of spring green. Such a pretty and fresh color. I have a class I am teaching tomorrow for this tote bag. I fell in love with this fabric. I am really enjoying teaching classes. I have a couple new venues I am working up ideas for. I took a temporary job in an accounting and tax office doing admin work for a few weeks. Its a great place and I am enjoying that, but after working my early morning shift at Target I am sooooo tired. Add teaching classes, I have to wonder if I am sane! But there is a method to my madness. Its all in the grand plan. Trying to tie up some loose ends and getting ready for my own teaching studio. By the way,,,,, I am looking for studio space in something like an art co op in the Tempe/Phoenix area. I have found some amazing spots all across the country, but nothing at all in this area.

Its been quite a few years since I made bears, but it is a huge passion. I am looking forward to work on my bears and some art dolls as well. Well, I sure hope you all are having a great week.

Its such a fantastic new location. There were alot of people visiting and many of the artists were on hand. There were some pretty door prizes and lots of great food. (Mexican food and cupcakes, doesnt get better than that!) I wanted to share some of the pictures I took so you can get an idea of all of the amazing handmade and vintage items in the shop. If you happen to be a fan of Annie Sloan Chalk paint, Green Table Gifts is only one of two shops in Arizona able to carry this very popular paint. Stay tuned for lots of new classes being offered as well. Here is the link to their website, have a virtual look around:) Hope to see you at shop soon! In the mean time, enjoy a tour of what you can find.<br />

I am working on some new designs. Lots of new pillow ideas. I like free motion quilting with three dimensional embellishments. I am just working out the process to get it from my brain to my hands :) I plan on doing a couple tutorials soon for handmade ruffled roses and the "icing" satin ribbon trim on the cupcake pillow.<br />
I am working on some pin cushions that may be a nice gift for Mothers Day. I really love pin cushions. I must have 6 or 7 that I have collected.<br />
It looks like a pretty spring like week ahead. I hope you all have a very pretty week too! Googars and George are relaxing and enjoying a nap with the fresh air blowing in the window. They leave a lot to be desired as co-workers. <br />
