"The road goes on forever and the party never ends …" Robert Earl Keen
I’m making this pillow top up as I go …
Which is to say, what else is new? Or more like “same old, same old,” as these were inspired by ancient petroglyphs from New Mexico …
In other news, we got to see Parker and her best friend in their first recital …
Last, but not least: G’s latest baseball win and P’s latest painting (which PopPop deemed worthy of framing) …
So yeah, it’s all good.
I wanted to do another pillow cover, this time with something I don’t usually use: all new cloth from Stitch in Dye, gifted by Meg last Christmas. The colors were reminiscent of New Mexico, so I tore strips and patches and began to baste them down with thoughts of the petroglyphs at La Cieneguilla in Santa Fe …
But it looked too orderly compared to the real thing …
So I started over …
And will see where it takes me …
Parker’s fifth birthday, her first real party, at the Wildflower Center …
Logan’s prom pix …
Parker’s birthday continued …
Celebrating Meliss during her nurse pinning in St Louis (Jake and Jace missing out due to illness) …
And then graduation day (when Jace recovered enough to join us for dinner) …
Of course, no visit to St Louis would be complete without ice cream and art and music and more ice cream (this time with Jake, too) …
Meanwhile, back in Austin …
All topped of with a full moon eclipse visible from my stitching chair window …
Life is full and very very good.
