My folk-art imagery reflects my multi-cultural background and my fascination with folkart from around the world. Inspiration comes from memories collected during my African childhood with its animals and grasslands, a sojourn in the green South of England and time spent in Connecticut, Tennessee, Utah and Ohio.

Home again
I arrived home late on Wednesday night spent Thursday getting organized then Aimee and I worked on our 'Aimee and Me' project for May. It was really great spending time with her and especially creating. It had been 5 weeks since I had seen my girls!
I just love the 'Miss Hoot' pillow we came up with. It was really fun to stitch and will look great on her bed. It will be posted as a kit on my website in a couple of days.
On Saturday I headed down to West Virginia to the Woolen Willow and taught a pincushion class. Everyone did a different one and had fun playing with wool and embellishments.
The Early Pincushion pattern is still a favorite with many people.
Our annual retreat 'Workt by Hand' is this weekend in Tipp City Ohio. I am very anxious to see the projects Melissa, Sally and Alice have done. You will have to visit back to see what I post later this week. We are expecting 48 participants and can't wait to see old friends.
It is really nice to have spring in the air here in Ohio. I am very anxious to get out in my yard but have to wait until Spring Market is over.
Take care
Sue
