Beautiful work on the cushion Dzintra, and congratulations on the win! Its been an absolute crazy July for me. Its been a whole month since I've had time to read blogs and emails. Missed it alot! Hopefully August will be different! (: xxxVicki
Wow, those are gorgeous projects - I wish I was talented like that!
Dzintra dearest!!!! Thank you for coming to visit and OH YEAH....all of these DAMES are my all-time favorites, especially Judy Dench and Helen Mirren. What grace, inner-strength and courage they display, at least in the roles that they play! But what lovely locks, non? I still have a healthy head of natural black, but if I live long enough to have a full gray/silver head, I want to show off every natural strand of it like these ladies do! I am sure your sport a lovely natural do....I have seen your pictures and you are lovely.
Have a wonderful day my dear! Anita
...and thank you for your constant encouragement and enthusiasm my dear, for the messages I so want to communicate, and hope to do so in a way that is memorable. Metaphors, metaphors, my favorite! And yes, AU NATURAL is the best I think....show the world who you really are....you are so beautiful with your own beautiful color! Good for that hairdresser!!! She knows what is right!
Enjoy the day, Anita
And cheers to you too, dearest! Anita
Congratulations on your win! Your work is beautiful.

Hi Dzintra
Sorry I missed Jo-jo's birthday.. tell I said Happy Birthday!!! Hope she is still celebrating and enjoying the moment!!!
I just love that photo of the clothesline.. I have a real thing about clotheslines especially the old Hills Hoists.. perhaps that is childhood memories from swinging on them .. hahaha
Looks like you had fun with your cookup.... Hope you get to enjoy that beach walk.. I may just do the same.. xxx Julie
