While my husband works downstairs making tables and birdhouses, I am watching the snow fall while reading your enjoyable newsletter. I remember visiting your pottery shed when I spent a weekend taking your wonderful class on color and embroidery on knitting. I love the small oval plates with the painted birds and hope you will be selling them soon. Thanks for the chicken curry recipe. I make a vegetable curry that would go nicely with this chicken. I’ll email it to you. Would you ever consider teaching a lampshade class? I have 2 floor lamps that are in need of colorful shades.
Hi Kristin! This is Therese Inverso's sister, Antonia. What a beautiful blog! So inspiring to show us ways to brighten our day with crafting, even detailed down to your mental process into fruition. (BTW, We just finished a beeswax candle dipping class with our home-schoolers in New Mexico yesterday. Ages 3 to 13 participated making some 25 candles, success!) I love looking at all your colors in all the mediums you create. My only comment, or gentle suggestion would be to see if you can paint your birds without the black out-lines. Try using a dark color (olive green?) instead? Or a variety of other dark color outlines instead. Or perhaps no outlines at all? Thank you for taking the time to share!
This was a fun read, just enjoyed your paintings of birds a lot. I had to have your 50 Sunflowers to knit crochet and felt, also. How wonderful to live so peacefully as you do. I hope one day we can move to a smaller community as well. Have a wonderful day. Linda
Another wonderful newsletter! So many beautiful things to get lost in!

I always love to see your mountains of colorful crocheted hexes! Thank you for the recipe and comments... I think I'll try it.

I'm loving everything you create! (Years ago I took a knitting design class with you in San Diego)
