Well - what a morning we've had! Dorina and Brian stayed the night on our CL, and it turns out Dorina is a violinist who has led practically every Symphonia (Scottish, London, Los Angeles) we've ever heard of. Anyway, she came up this morning to give Jonathan a lesson and also played some pieces for us. What a joy! And Jonathan's Happy Birthday is coming along very nicely.
Went to the Festival of Quilts the other week and saw some beautiful quilts. A few of my favourites were:
 |
| Wrapped in Gentleness by Hiromi Yokota - wow! 70,000 beads handsewn to quilt! |
 |
In Memory of my Mother by Patricia Fitzgibbons. This quilt incorpoated old pieces of embroidery - something I've had in mind for a while.
Julia's Venetian Travelling Quilt by Michelle Holmes of Ashby de la Zouch. |
What happened with the harvest?
