Thursday after work I loaded everything into the car except the studio rack, the kit box and the soft pieces. I especially wanted the latter to lie flat and unfolded for as long as possible! Everything is in the locked car in the locked garage -- ready to load those last few items, and toddle on down the highway to Lacombe.
Blessedly, the weather forecast has improved a bit, and we're not likely to get either rained or snowed on while trekking from vehicles into the hall, back and forth, unpacking and setting up our booths. We'll let worrying about tomorrow's weather go...until tomorrow. 😊

Meanwhile...for those of you who can't make it to Lacombe, Alberta for the 20th Annual ENCORE! Lacombe Art Show & Sale...a peek at some more of the work that will be there...
March Trees I (C) 2019 12" W x 12" L, framed Needle-felting, fabric paper, fused applique and machine quilting applied to stretched canvas |
March Trees II (C) 2019 5" x 7" matted to 8" x 10" Mono-printed, machine quilted, beaded |

Now...it's a typical spring in Alberta. We've had VERY dry weather thus far and could use some rain, but of course, being here...well, there's rain and snow in the forecast. What to wear to stay warm will be an issue, as I am so tired of winter clothes! Blessedly, I finished this earlier this week, so will use it as a layering piece...
Pattern: Reyna Designer: Noora Backlund Yarns: 1) dark purple - Sweet Georgia; 2) multi - Zen Yarn Garden Superfine Fingering in the "Notebook" colour-way. |
Linking this to Nina Marie's Off the Wall Friday, and wishing you all a wonderful weekend!
