This is the new owl that I started hooking the other night. He is going to be pretty big-13" tall. Will try and get a little more work done tonight.
Couldn't resist...here's Henry with his little mouse toy taking a nap.
I found this nice book at the thrift store and thought it might help me to get knitting again. It's been years since I did any knitting but I still have my needles and lots of yarn from my weaving days. We leave tomorrow for our camping trip to the Sierras and I thought i might get some knitting done while Dennis fishes. Either that or enjoy reading under the pines with my toes in the stream!
And here is a partial shot of the path I made to my art studio. Pretty funky but it was fun to do.
I think it must have been about 10 years ago when I started on each square. That took a while and then when I had enough for a path I put them all together and cemented them in - poking little bits of tile and marbles in between the circles and squares.
Hope you all have a peaceful Memorial Day weekend and get some stitching in!

Hi Mary,
LOVE the pathway to your studio!
I think taking along the knitting is a great idea.
I try to carry something with me each day so I move
it further along even if it is just reading a little something.
Have big fun on your trip! : )

Great mosaic!
Your mosaic path is wonderful....so colourful and exciting. What a sense of achievement that must have been. I have done a bit of mosaicing and can see you have spent a lot of time on the squares. We recently lost an amazing mosaic artist from our local area, Maery Gabriel (I love that spelling of Mary). She did some amazing installations, you should google her and see some of her work.
I love your kantha Mothers Day quilt too. What beautiful soft fabrics and the little patches...sweet!
And, of course love that big owl.
