Another Tradition!


Treadmills

Some of you have heard me mention my "Monday Night Ladies" before......but....if you haven't.....there is a group of 6 art teachers that have been meeting for about the last 10 years every Monday night to experiment, create and talk about art with our students:D For many of the past years we have met in my studio. Always fun and always silly.....we have plotted our way through many an art project:D We share ideas, materials, techniques and lesson plans and all the fun that takes place in our wonderful classrooms. Although I have retired this year....the meetings will continue. Each Christmas we have an ornament exchange and my collection has grown over time! This year I decided to make stuffed Christmas Trees with a beautiful old quilt top. They are puffy and vintage.....sort of like me.....LOL Anyway, I thought I would post a pic before wrapping them for our party next week.

Linda,
These trees are adorable! It seems you never run out of clever ideas. I hope you have a lovely Christmas.
My Ryan is loving the Christmas music and making cookies. I think of your Margo often and hope she is enjoying special Christmas things with her Grandma too.

Thanks for the kind words Linda. Please let me know when you have time how the diet goes with Margo as we are considering trying it with Ryan in the near future. My email is antique_sue@yahoo.com

Thanks,

Sue
