Mixed media ~ hand and machine sewn.

Rescued mens neck ties, rescued denim jeans, frayed denim.

The mission was ...

at a designated time type Uncanny Valley into Google ...

 select page 3 of the results...

 from that page choose a site as your inspiration.

My choice was ~ http://www.anecdote.com.au/archives/2011/01/the_uncanny_val.html

My inspiration was "Storytelling" ...

I’ve made the craft of storytelling my business. It’s about

rescue, about salvaging the past for the future. Using lost

and found objects, my work unpicks the threads of

genealogical history and re-weaves them into a new

narrative that can itself be retold and reinterpreted for

generations to come.

 proud ...

surrounded by love ...

Belle in training for 6th Annual Google Exhibiton 2012!



Love was in the air tonight ...

so grateful to be feeling so very blessed!

Poppy would've been 95 today so we took him fishing ...

On this glorious day we ambled down to Poppy's fave fishing spot ...

to the spot where he'd kept us fed with fresh fish for decades.

Four generations ...

Belle and her Daddy shared magical father and daughter moments ...

exactly where Dad and I'd caught a few feeds of fish ...

from the same spot where we'd been known to brag about the ones that'd got away.

Today we cheered, we laughed, we said 'love you Poppy'  ...

I cried for a moment ...

no sadness ...

all joy to be there together ...

as we sent Poppy on his way ...

exactly where he'd asked for us to send him off ...

Iris and Daffodils floated along to brighten his way ...

gorgeous Belle, kept tradition alive wearing a touch of leopard print ...

and only wanted to play ...

Belle's headwear courtesy Moi ...

Priceless ...

exactly as was the day...

I'm so eternally blessed. 

Christmas Greetings to One and All ...

Off to spread the joy of this special time  ...

hope your Christmas Day is as fabulous as mine ...

good friends ...

scrumptious fare ...

with four generations  ... Bliss.
