We both enjoyed yesterday’s movie – “It’s Complicated”, with Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin. Refreshing to see Martin in a non-comedic role. It was nice to just get out and away from it all for a bit — now it’s back to work!

The new piece that I am working on will be for IQA’s Celebrate Spring if all goes well. But I am not ready to show it yet. In the past, I have made two different small works about the process of springtime burning of the land and they have both sold. This current piece is on the same theme but is much larger, and I hope, more impressive. Here’s a little bit.

I hope I have, or can find, the fabrics to pull it off! It is curved seam piecing and will be embellished with beading.

Yesterday, Mary and I went to see “Men Who Stare At Goats”, a rather strange movie. Not a bad movie, but sort of weird, they say it’s a true story – I don’t know….

Afterwards, shopping, I found Stephen King’s new book. It has over a thousand pages, 1074 to be exact, so knowing that I would never finish it in the time allowed by the library I had to purchase it.

He may be my favorite author and is not producing so prolifically as he once did so I was excited to start the new book and was not disappointed. I will take it with me today to the Art Gallery as it is my day to work there, and I can read in the quiet times.

Well, I never expected to see THAT title here!!

A friend and I try to go to the movies every week if there is anything worth seeing. I never was a Michael Jackson fan, but this week she wanted to see the new MJ documentary so Monday we went to see it. I really enjoyed it! The man could move, and I spent most of the movie looking at his feet. He was a perfectionist and could be quite demanding.

Yesterday I got quite a lot done with the quilting and should be able to finish today if I don’t end up outside again!
