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.

At first glance, the petroglyphs look carved into the surface. Brava for Miss P! Good is Good!

Jude Hill’s split backstitch combined with Deb Lacativa’s dyed thread is once again an unbeatable combination

A pillow that has no need for words of explanation for it simply and beautifully says, New Mexico: Kokopelli, corn, spirals, road runner, it’s all here…
Sigh… such sweet special family moments: Parker with her tutu and ballerina hair; her smile lights up the room as I’m sure her dancing did AND Griffin, grinning from ear to ear and why not, a trophy and his team, could any boy want more…well, maybe some cupcakes and ice cream!
Parker’s painting is worthy of a “guest showing” in the Ackert Art Gallery.

the stitches feel wonderful under my fingers … somewhat hard to see, but that makes them like the petroglyphs we saw in Santa Fe …

as I run my fingers over the stitches, I recall clambering up the hill to touch the petroglyphs at La Cieneguilla outside Santa Fe …
