While Waiting

Yesterday, I waited all day for a special delivery 
so I made a denim skirt.
Then I sewed a backing for a quilt and loaded it on the frame.
And I played with my watercolors off and on all day. 
 (A new to me teacher has me inspired again--I want to do so many of his lessons!  Paul Clark is his name and this is my rendering of his Scottish Castle in Line and Wash
Finally, when it was almost today my oldest son, 
Jared, and his family arrived! they will be here for weeks and it is a good thing because I haven't see them for years!!!!
 Might I say, hugs in person are the best.  
Today, we hang out at the pool 
and I get to know my two grand daughters!

  3. Love the skirt. I live in denim dresses all summer. The watercolor is a masterpiece! I used to do that with Pete Sheeler on You Tube. You learn so much from painting along with their tutorials.
    Have a great visit with your family!
