Dinner at Eight Artists Interview, etc.

Spring is busting out all over in my back yard.  This is the one time of the year that the Hawthorns look glorious.

And in the atrium, too. I can never remember what these orange beauties are called. Anyone?

Check out our resident lizard. Or is it lizards? We've been seeing them every day, and they seem to hang out in this woodpile. Unfortunately, we recently used up all the firewood, so the lizard or lizards have scattered.

Matilda has come home! This mounted photo was shown at quilt festivals in Houston, Long Beach, and Cincinnati, as part of the "Eye of the Quilter" photography exhibit. She's lying down on a bit of handprinted fabric. Always getting in on the photo.

And be sure to go to the Dinner at Eight Artists blog to check out all the artists' interviews. I am interviewed today. http://dinnerateightartists@

My quilt "A Dance to Spring" is part of this exhibit. When I get home from our trip on Sunday I'll download a photo of it. It's the one of my mom as a little girl, dressed up as a flower for May Day.
