Monet’s garden.

Were a group of Quilters in france and the idea is to enjoy the ambiance of the historical and beautiful  – and possibly create something from those images. No doubt the inspiration will stay with us for a long time. We began the day with a trip to the local market… We bought freshly roasted…

It was a very fulfilling day  yesterday… I tried to put up a lot of other info, but the Internet was saturated. It led me to think how easy it is to receive joy if we allow it to happen. I feel sadness here when I see an old woman begging or the prostitutes lounging…

A Needle in the Right Hand of God.

My plane was delayed for over an hour and a half today so I had a lot of time to work (and relax) it gave me time to catch up on some reading. I have a hard copy of this book and have read it from cover to cover. But it's wonderful to have it…
