In this way, ideas and inspiration seems to flow back and forth in such an energetic way.

I am so glad that you have been visiting, and especially that you left some comments. It is always special to hear from people and be able to share with them in mutual ways. I agree with you about reds. I tend to be drawn to them as well. I think you should do a quilt of reds especially if you have been saving a collection of them. There are so many inspiring quilts out there, and I love looking at some of the blogs that feature these. I am sure you do as well. I would love to see what you come up with if you are willing to share. Hope you come back and leave another comment sometime.

The card from Japan is beautiful in its simplicity. Isnt it wonderful to have a friend who shares your love of art.

I have enjoyed popping by to visit your blog. I have been lurking about a little while and thought I should leave a comment as I really enjoy reading your posts.

I adore the vintage red quilt your purchased recently. I have been toying with the idea of making myself a red quilt for quite a while (and have a good stash of reds to choose from). Your quilt has inspired me to get them out and start on my quilt.

Thanks for stopping by. I think I crashed for a few days.

I will have to understand how I am leaving the comment next time. This was a mistake, not intentional. Thank you for returning to me. Your work is very inspiring!

I, too, think this is very important. I especially identify with your last comment about giving ourselves time and space for quiet and the beauty and enjoyment of nature. That in itself is so healing.

This seems to come and go. Or maybe because I have found it hard to get down consistently to my creative space to work. This is always a bit frustrating, but I am certain I am not alone with this issue of time and creativity.

I think blogging is pretty special, and I want to keep it that way. I have met so many wonderful people in such a short period of time, and that includes you!

I like that concept….”no guilt blogging”, and since we all have so many other shoulds, blogging should be kept for fun, relaxation, inspiration, creativity, and sharing. Thanks for that reminder. I needed to see this and remember.
