  I've been rather prolific this past year and decided to create this planner as a way to catalog some of my favorites. No longer willing to hang in shows, so I keep the framing costs to a minimum and have a small changing show here on the studio walls and stack unframed work on shelves. I've sold three of the original pieces so that feels good and I'm already working on my second piece of this new "Scribe" series. I'm truly happiest at the work table!
I realize most people use their phones for calendars and planners but if any one of you might want a planner, this is a good shape and weight. Take a look at the preview and I believe the price is $25with shipping and tax extra and I hope you like the layout.

"Night Revelry"

6"x6", cradled wood panel, flour paste cotton, embroidery and machine stitching, muslin and painted netting, silver and turquoise beads.

Well this little one is my night following morning of the mosaic series. I'm putting together a calendar/planner and these two will be featured together ... that is if I figure out all the twists and turns in the Blurb planner download? I have discovered working 'small' is neither fast nor easy ...what has been fun is sewing the silver beads and stitching the moon/planet shape. The last of this series (for the second time) is a 12"x12" cradled panel and using the remainder of these square (mosaic) cloths only this last one the squares are on a mottled beige, white and gray painted fabric.

We had rain most of yesterday and for us it is a true gift as we are still on limited water use and hoping for more and  more rain. The birdbath was filled for the first time in a year and I had a few bird bathers stop by...life is good!
