and Now there are Five...all done!

Number five and four are on top
numbers one, two and three below... Here you can see all five postcards It was fun to get out fabric paints, acrylics, glitter and glue for this last of the five Playing Card Postcards for our Art Quilts Around The World post card swap. I wonder who wants which one? Actually they all went out in yesterdays mail. ********* Saturday was a busy day in a laid back sort of way. I did some studying in the early afternoon while sitting in the shade of our three redwood trees in the back yard. Then I felt like creating so I went inside and let fabric and threads fly! In just a few hours I got the foundation fabrics and ribbons stitched together and then quilted by machine. Now I am in the process of adding hand stitches and embellishments. I love how it's come together. It sings Summer. And it's big about 16" x 16" I'll show it to you soon!

  7. I must gain 36 hours every two years of continuing education units to keep my counseling license up to date. Yesterday I was taking an exam (at home/internet) on "Online counseling and Therapy: Critical Issues". I have a booklet of tests I can take. Some of the others include: "Ethics for Social Work"; and "HIV/AIDS: Epidemic Update for Behavioral Health Professionals". I'll probably do all of these. Or I can go on line and choose some others. I can't remember how many more hours I need for this round. I already have some done.
