Ahh, Monday mornings....
All of tmy pets can tell when the weekend revelries are over. They are glum as they feed at 5:30 AM, knowing that walks, hugs, and playtime will not commence again until around 4:00 PM, a long time away.
At school last week I had a first grader tell me that he wanted me to show him how to draw a mouse. Others chimed in, asking for mouse drawing lessons. Do you see why I love my job? Who gets to have this much fun at work?
My cabinet doors needed some brightening up so we made these silly mice. I had the children write, in sentence form, the name of their mouse and what it likes to do. I chose to share these because they were produced by two of my "at risk" students.
Finally, I want to share the sampler I made at my embroidery class at Weston's in Mount Shasta. The class was fun and Micky Weston is a warm and gentle soul and a wonderful teacher.
If one was to make assumptions about the kind of women who would attend an embroidery class, one might think it would attract a rather mild mannered, unadventurous sort. Oh boy!! You would not believe the stories! These women are ANYTHING but mild and boring!

Hi Katy, I came to your blog from CQI. I love your sampler!! I magnified the picture to see the stitching, how did you do the big wine colored roses? Several stitches I've never seen before, and I thought I've seen them all. This is simply beautiful Katy, I look forward to seeing more of your work.
ReplyDeleteI too am a dog lover, with a Pom and a border collie. They are my life, along with my 4 cats.
I'm going to follow your blog, welcome to CQI!
Wow, Katy, that is gorgeous!! I am amazed with your focus and your patience to do such exquisite needle work! Mona G.
