Happy Valentine's Day

To all the lovers, valentines, singles and romantics at heart: here is a valentine love book I made several years ago. It has images on the front and back for a total of eight ways to show love. Here are four of them.

Here is a painting called "Flying".

And last but not least, a felt heart.

Logo for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee

Queen Elizabeth is celebrating her reign of 60 years with her Diamond Jubilee in 2012. This is the logo for the Jubilee and it was designed by a ten year old girl. Lovely I say and cheerio!

Buckingham Palace and the BBC’s Blue Peter programme today announced details of the official emblem chosen for Her Majesty The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.

The emblem is the winning design following a national competition for children aged between 6 and 14. It was designed by 10-year-old Katherine Dewar, from Chester.

The official emblem is available immediately, free of charge, for download from the British Monarchy website. It will be available for use for all activities associated with the Diamond Jubilee celebrations including community and national events, publications, retail and merchandising.

Fiber Artist Debrah Krol

Many of you know I'm a needle felting fiend. People often ask me about the process and I have found a great article by Debrah Krol called "I've got that felting feeling" which explains it. Her work is lovely...check out her woven mesh bracelets too.

Helen Frankenthaler dies at 83

Nature Abhors a Vacuum 1973

The artist Helen Frankenthaler has died. She was famous for using a method she helped develop which was known as the Color Field and she was married to the artist Robert Motherwell for many years. Ms. Frankenthaler poured turpentine-thinned paint in watery washes onto the raw canvas so that it soaked into the fabric weave, becoming one with it.
