Spring Blossom Therapy
Today was the first day this year that I could walk into my backyard and smell the flowering crabapples, or walk out the front door and smell the blossoming lilacs. Mmmm, heavenly! Last year we had
Blue Jays nesting in my Japanese Lilac tree outside the kitchen window. I have heard them squawking outside this week.
But I know for people with allergies (like our daughter Sophie Quinn) it is a miserable time of year. She has a recital next week so she is mostly inside practicing this weekend. I have been in the studio working on a new piece, but this weekend I am going to enjoy the Spring sunshine and have some Spring Blossom therapy. The Hite collection of Hawaiian quilts is on display in Loveland through April 19, so I plan to get up there next week.
On Friday I had a visitor from the Carter Center. You may recall that my portrait of Rosalynn Carter hangs in the Mental Health offices there. She was a champion to combat mental health stigmas in America. Many people still think the Carters' main nonprofit work was Habitat, but actually their greatest accomplishments were through the Carter Center in Atlanta. So my visitor and I had a long talk about the state of non-profits and human rights in today's world. This will be a theme in the next artwork I am planning, after I finish the current wildlife-themed quilt.
Are you making plans for Spring Sewing, or are you already up to your eyeballs in a project, on a deadline? Springtime is a great time to visit quilt festivals around the country, and indeed around the world. But this coming week also has many deadlines for Calls for Entry, for exhibits and festivals this Fall. Good luck with your entries!
We are here for all your quilting and sewing needs, so if you have questions or requests, please do contact us and ask for help or information. Now is the time to think about sewing gifts for Mothers Day, Graduations, and Weddings!
sharing your love for fabric,
Luana and Paul
