My talented niece Vivi drew me a castle on an island while she was here on a sleep over. I spent the past couple of hours playing with it and came up with this pattern. It really made my afternoon happy.

Just got a notice that Same but Not will show in the ArtQuilt Elements show in Philadelphia next Spring. The nice thing about this show is that it is at the same time as the SAQA/SDA conference Identity:Context and Reflection and the Fiber Philadelphia biennial devoted to all things fiber art.
A must be there event.

Yet in many ways it is. This is a layout of the pages of the Parallel Lives book Jean and I are creating. We're like a dog with a bone on this thing. Collaboration brings insight, modifications, and sometimes even doubt. Happily, we have arrived at a solution that pleases us both. More to follow.
