Summer of Love Challenge

I have a wall hanging in the Summer of Love challenge, which is currently up at the San Francisco School of Needlework and Design. It was fun to make! I used a vintage embroidered pillow case for the background. The hexagon block and doily are also vintage. 
Some of you may recognize the peace sign and the VW, which have appeared in my quilts before. 

We lived in San Francisco in the very early 70's, when peace, love and flower power were still very much in the air. 

This is my first time using Blog Touch Pro on my phone. So far, I love it!

Just for the Halibut at Jewels of the Sea exhibit

I made this for the "Jewels of the Sea" Challenge by the San Francisco School of Needlework and Design, and it is there on display until March 4. The address is 360 Post Street, Suite 604. I am told it is across from Union Square. There's a reception/party next Saturday from 11-4, and I will be there, come hell or high water! Which may be the case, because there is a lot of rain going on up there and flooding in some places.

I updated this post since I first wrote it, because the photos needed to be tweaked. Here I am with Miss Halibut at the exhibit!

Love to embroider

A tiny tear in my pants provided a creative opportunity.
