This amaryllis which had taken so long to bloom is now in full bloom. It looks lovely against this quilt piece that I made way back in 2009. Three months after I retired, I flew to Italy for a workshop with Esterita Austin in Tuscany. It was a wonderful week. This wall hanging depicts the view from an upper window at the villa where the workshop took place. This piece was started at the workshop and completed when I returned home.
Speaking of flowers, after a fun lunch with friends yesterday, I visited the “Books in Bloom” exhibit by the Weymouth Garden Club at the Tufts Library in Weymouth. It will be up until tomorrow. In case you are not able to see it in person, let me show you a few of the displays.
Out of Africa
The Children’s Room also had some delightful displays.
It was a lovely break from the onslaught of horrible news coming from the Oval Office. I recently wrote that politics would not be a part of this blog, but this is not the time for any of us to keep silent. Today’s shameful, disgraceful treatment of President Volodymyr Zelensky was just the latest outrage in what has been a horrible few weeks.
Slava Ukraini/ Glory to Ukraine!
