Sculpture is For More Then Just Looking At

My sculpture Unit of Five was chosen by a robin as a home to raise her newest family.



A trait which is similar in people as it is in animals we are always trying to find our home.



Let it be a physical building or a feeling you get when you look at a piece of art. Said many times before "home is where the heart is". Sculpture in your home or garden can give you that wonderful feeling every time you look at it.

The "Knittin Gals"

Our first knitting group get together was today and we will continue every Tuesday at 1:30. So bring yourself, your textile project and an appetite for conversation to Martin House Art every Tuesday afternoon. Today there were 3 knitters, 1 embroiderer, my sister learning a new crocheting pattern, 1 hand sewer and Susan working on a child's smocked dress.

This is the group that's coming next week so you better get here on time to get a seat.
Be a Winner learn to knit.

Day 19 and Twenty

My little girl is getting married today. We are gaining a wonderful son-in-law that we all love very much.

I won't have time to do much knitting today but I will sneak some in somewhere.

OK.... to tell the truth I will be knitting in the car all the way to Toronto. And, while we sit and wait for the bride and groom to get dressed. And, while we wait at the chapel. And, all the way home in the car. Should get a good portion of a scarf done.

Day Eighteen

With a few conversations it was determined that Tuesdays would be a good day of the week for our knitting group. And remember we don't discriminate crocheters are welcome to attend.

The resin pendant is for sale at $20. I have several colours of the ball of yarn and knitting needles with more coming soon.
