Oh my goodness! I want to know how to do this? It is absolutely lovely. Yes, it does look like Toulouse Lautrec, or perhaps a Degas? I love the colors and the gaiety of it all. Fantastic work, Sue! Thanks for sharing something so fun and unique!

Wowzah! What a beautiful piece of artwork... is it embroidery? It even looks like the old technique 'lace making' (don't know the english word for this technique) Awesome!

Hello

A friendly street light illuminates the dark path as does bright hellos!

Have a lovely weekend... love from foxysue Recuerda mi Corazon

But I lost my poor little doll, dears, As I played in the heath one day; And I cried for her more than a week, dears; But I never could find where she lay. I found my poor

Navigating Home

Well here I am again!  Wonder of wonders that I am even showing up at all in this little blog wilderness having uprooted my faithful old friend Finding my Bliss by way of messing up the template!  The one who safely sailed me through Bloglandia for all of those years was interfered with in an abrupt manner (see previous post).   I know it may sound silly but I feel like I am grieving for what was my sanctuary and residence, I am feeling kind of lost with nothing familiar to cling to, but alas I do have one place that is very much like home and so there I will share a little haiku with my friends... By way of haiku navigate a place called home the 'heart' gathering... On the subject of home and the insecurity of having no solid ground to tread on, that's where I am finding myself at present as I'm in the throws of purchasing a new home and going through a very sticky patch with the legalities of it all.  It's going at a snail's pace and I'
