Blues in Flight

 Off the frame and even bound!

Apple Core has been completed!

 The quilting is a simple flower and butterfly done by pantograph.

 My new labels!

The quilt is now marked as from my studio!

I used some hand dyed fabric for the binding--the colors are much more complex in person.

And the mailbox had one little addituon or more accurately a resubmission!!!

I wasn't happy with the butterfly I painted initially.  It was all wrong.

I am much happier with this one which looks to be painted from a grown-up and not a child! lol

FEELIN' GROOVY!

 I hope you're singing!

  I present to you the colorful and happy mailbox art!

 The back side of the box.  

(Even though the mail people don't see this side, I wanted everyone to be able to see color, too.)

I had fun coloring a whole spiral and then covering it with the black 

and doing what is called negative painting.  

I struggle with wrapping my head around it but the numbers are

 legible and was a good brain exercise!

I hope to make a lot of smiles on my road!

And if you need help knowin' the words to the song....

I will help you out!

Slow down, you move too fast

You got to make the morning last

Just kicking down the cobblestones

Looking for fun and feeling groovy

Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling groovy

Hello lamppost, what'cha knowing

I've come to watch your flowers growin'

Ain't you got no rhymes for me?

Doo-ait-n-doo-doo, feeling groovy

Ba da-da da-da da-da, feeling groovy

I got no deeds to do, no promises to keep

I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep

Let the morningtime drop all its petals on me

Life, I love you, all is groovy
