Sights of San Francisco




Can't show you photographs of my quilts these days, so how about a couple of photographs from our recent trip to San Francisco? The first one would have been better if that darned car hadn't blocked the view of the front cable car! The second photo is better, and there's a lot crammed into it: you can see our hotel, the Argonaut, on the right. It's part of the old Cannery building - Del Monte used to can peaches and whatnot there. You can also see the throngs of tourists that were swarming in the Fisherman's Wharf area, with the wharf and fishing boats in the background. Beyond that is the San Francisco Bay, complete with a little fog in the distance, plus a peek at Alcatraz Island.




I'm excited about a Rayna Gillman workshop at Fullerton College that I signed up for. It's in June. I already had a lot of the needed supplies; I ordered the rest from Dick Blick and they arrived today. I have taken a few screenprinting classes before, but Rayna has some new techniques that I am eager to learn.
