Not Your Baker's Yeast
Felice Frankel's macro photogra-
phy of yeast colonies magnified many times inspired this quilt. The filamented circles, although pretty, are invasive colonies and can cause disease.

cloth, and decorative wools, ribbons and threads. Machine pieced and appliqued, machine and hand quilted

New Metals
These four little quilts are mounted on 8 x 10 painted canvases. They are for sale at The Commons Gallery in Eastport, Maine. Painting the canvas was quite a challenge - I must have painted 10 different layers before I got an acceptable look.www.thecommonseastport.com
Metal I
All four quilts use paper, fabric, wool or ribbon edging and some kind of metal. This quilt uses copper mesh, beads and hand stitching with linen thread.

Balloon 11/28/08
Here are 12 more little squares from my Illustration Friday efforts for 2008. There were three words not expressed, but I still plan to do them. And what am I going to do with fifty-two 3 3/4" pieces? A future post will give you a clue! However, for now - up, up and away seems like a good finishing touch.
Vacant 10/31/08
Fabric, paper, hand dyed cheese cloth, machine and hand stitching. I worked on the word "va- cant" when the whole foreclosure debacle was starting.
Late 10/17/08
This is a reuse of part of a necklace from Kenya and is one of my favorite little pieces.
