Lots of Good Things

 Today I went to see my quilt hanging in our local art gallery called "Gallery 110 North".  If you do not remember this it is called "Reeds On the Mullet River".    Not a good shot of it but you can see it here:  "Reeds"

 Our Gallery has been remodeled and the new gallery is wonderful.  Still needs better spot lighting adjustment but over all it is a huge improvement.

 The work was wonderful and I enjoyed seeing some of my friends work as well.

When I got home a package was waiting for me.  It was an Acrylic painting by Libby Fife.  I won this in a drawing on her blog last week and it arrived today.  I put it on an easel on my dresser.  I love the colors and Libby's technique.  If you want to see her work visit her blog here:   quiltedcraftsman

 It came with a photograph of another of her paintings on the front of the enclosed  card.  Thank you Libby, my cup runneth over!

I also have my kitchen back.  Yes the tile man came back and sealed the edges where the tile meets the countertops.  After he left I could put everything back on top just being careful not to put it against the wall too close as to hit the grout line.

I am so happy to have a working kitchen back and it looks fabulous to me.  Nice and bright and cheerful.

The day was a good one despite it being cold and rainy.

"Quilt Gallery" now open!

Well here is the "Quilt Gallery" now open in our Antique Shop!
The totes you see here were made by my quilting sister, Bonnie.
We thought we would add a few articles for sale. I plan on bringing some pillows too.

Here is "Purple Mountains Majesty" as well as "Stars in the Garden" a quilt I made before I started blogging.

On the left is "Jamaican Stars" which is embellished with a few antique buttons. This quilt was also made a few years ago. Around the corner you will recognize "Beaded Poppies".
(Yes those are antique tin walls!)

"Whose There"

Another View of the Corner of the room.
I just noticed that "Evening Interlude" is not shown. It is to the left of "Whose There".
Just somehow did not get a shot of it.
It is a small room but it works. Could use some track lighting now.
