here he is... and exhibitions

Here he is , coming over for his first dinner at Nana's house. I do not usually post very personal stuff, but I can't resist this.

Two exhibitions in Britain I wish I could see, I am so tempted to buy both catalogs

First Threads of Feeling, which I read about in the TextileHunter's blog....today Sally also posted this link http://www.threadsoffeeling.com/ a slide show to the exhibition that is so touching. Intensely interesting and heartbreaking at the same time.

and a recent exhibition in York, on Canadian WW11 Red Cross Quilts that were sent to Britain. I found this information on a super blog that I read, Welsh Quilts, written by Pippa Moss.

both these blogs are my regular read....everything I like. A topic that I am interested in and a sense of time and place.

This London vintage souvenir scarf was featured in two smashing treasuries this week.

Memories of London, put together by Jen, a British artist who now lives in France. Do check out her lovely, original work.

and Looking back and smiling, a nostalgic treasury that Linda pulled together. Another expat with a great sense of humor .
