Time Machine

SO, yes, it has been many months since I have last posted any new news on here, but here is a quick re-cap:
*July 26th-my mother passed-away from a severe ICH. *
She is already missed, and always loved.

Otherwise, I have been slowly coming back to work, and am now working at a ferocious speed in order to keep up with all of the shows I have been attending, and the two I have yet to attend.
I have been making fall feltings recently, many small felted pumpkins, and I made three fall wallhangings for this year, all of which found lovely homes at the Waynesville Church Street show. Picture below of some of the pumpkins.

Also, we have been working on our Halloween decorations for the annual party.  This year we will be making an even larger effort to get donations for Trick or Treat for UNICEF. We used to go trick or treating, mostly for the purpose of collecting donations for UNICEF (since we dont eat the candy; we give the kids 'healthy' quality sweets, and a small toy instead), but the amount of people who were prepared to give for UNICEF was shamefully small.  About 80% of houses we approached had to make quite a search for change to donate, and most had not been asked previously that evening. So, we decided to have Halloween parties instead, where everyone can have a reason to dress and play safely, and hopefully donate what they can to help the kids.

I want to give many thanks to those of you who came to see me in Hendersonville and Waynesville, and supported me.  Thank you very much, and I hope you will enjoy your pieces for many years:)
