Ladies,
I think it is ok to invite a few close friends to have a peek at our blog. I really wanted Elizabeth to start a blog for us so that we could communicate with each other since we don't all know each other.

This is my finished Challenge piece--finally! Unfortunately, the picture doesn't show that there are actually 8 layers on this piece. I messed up the facing to try to use my shadowbox and got frustrated and just gave up. I am really glad this one is done. I hope the 2nd piece doesn't frustrate me like this one did!

Does anyone object to having one of my friends be able to view our blog? Susan

Poppies will put them to sleep

So here I am, contemplating the approaching snowstorm, and thinking of poppies in a meadow. Ruminating about what to do for February -- and poppies came to me. I love their happy countenances anyway -- and a red poppy seems appropriate for February. Unless another idea usurps it, poppies it will be.

I added a comment under my January piece about my process for those of you who might be interested.
