Doing a little traveling...

After taking Laure Ferlita’s Imaginary Trip to Italy, I think I might just take a real trip.  While thinking about that, I made a bunch of luggage tags.  They are so fun and distinctive and help spot those black or even red suitcases coming off the baggage carrousel.  Before I go on a trip I always get very productive and finish up a few projects and clean up the house.  This time it has not been any different.  Check out Gallery 1, plus the above images to see a few newly completed projects.

It will be quiet here for a bit, but when I return I hope to have all kinds of wonderful watercolor sketches from the south of France and Italy.  I just checked the weather reports which show lots of rain.  I only hope we do get enough sunshine to get in our normal intense walking and exploring.  I know the rain should not dampen our spirits, but it really is not the same to explore when one is soggy.  Wish us sunshine.

Ah, if you want to see some amazing art quilts, check out the SAQA Auction, http://www.saqa.com/gallery-mini-detail.php?ID=2053, that will begin September 10.  I have a piece on page 3b.  “See” you in a few weeks.....
