A new SAQA book, Portfolio 19, The Art Quilt Sourcebook, is now available from the SAQA website. It includes a picture of my quilt, Same But Not on the cover (in the upper left corner) and profiles all of the professional members of the studio art quilt associates. A wonderful opportunity to review many beautiful works of art.

beware that false sense of security that drugs give you

DateThursday, May 10, 2012

This week has been a challenge. I was scheduled for laser gum surgery on Tuesday. I worked double time to be sure I had enough time for recuperation and healing after the surgery. On Tuesday, I prepped for the surgery by taking the prescribed mellowing agents. Trouble was, when Jim dropped me off for said torture the office said, NO NO NO!! It's NEXT Tuesday. Lucky for me those mellowing agents did not allow for the grand embarassment I was due. I don't even remember being there. Sure hope I wasn't drooling. I do notice a couple of new bruises on my body where I was bouncing off the walls.

Jim took me back home, tucked me in and let me sleep it off. I awoke to a new sense of entitlement, still walking a little like an Egyptian. Since I had the day off anyway I thought maybe I could get some work done on the spiral quilt. So creative, so happy, so sure of myself.

Today, I had to take out Mr. Tweezerman.
