More hearts for Haiti

I just visited Rebeccas' blog...


to see how things are going with Haiti and read a post she has  written that made me quite miffed, to be polite. She also has a little "heart sessions" going on, for people to take pictures of hearts they have made, or have in various forms and she is linking us together.  I'll let you read what she says on her page, and once again ask, if you can, help please.



Here is my contribution of hearts.....
I crocheted some, I drew one, I cut one out of paper, my grand daughter drew the little picture with the colourful hearts, bottom left,I quilled one
I found a silver one
and some gemstone ones...




and I will keep mine open for Haiti...

more wiggle wiggles


Here is the wiggle rug
I haven't really been working on it, but when I do it's surprisingly easy and fast.
 I made the base the size I thought it should be and started going around the outer edge.
I made the base out of cotton
and am using acrylic yarn.
I am also doing hdc because I think the dc proper would be too tall and get too matted.


Anyway, showing it will encourage me to finish it
and with the threat of the "storm of all time" upon us, AGAIN, I may get more done than I planned!!
I am also completely hooked on making photo mosaics and am looking through the books I have and little ideas keep creeping in causing me to make various and sundry squares.
Maybe by the time this winter is over I will have a rug comprised of squares, wiggles and who knows what.
This is why the top of my page says
"where inspriation turns to chaos"
I must learn to focus.!!

WOW

I just discovered that I have already made 50 posts. That didn't take long! I also put up a visitor widget thingymadoodle, which is on the bottom of the page, and was quite pleased to see that people are coming by for a visit, no matter how quietly! I changed the widget and lost all of the dots on the map, so please come back to visit, so I have a dotty globe again!!!

Polka dot snow

The snow we got the day before yesterday came from the South and was very wet, compared to the snow before that, which was extremely dry and fluffy.
I found this this morning
Polka dot snow.
That's the drive way showing through.


And to continue Bush Babes lesson of the other day
reflections...
here are a couple more...
the rose arbor


and the pine tree
in the brilliant sun of mid morning.

Who knows what the next snow will be like...
but we don't have long before we find out.


Ummm...
does anybody know if some major planet event has occured
and we have actually been shifted NORTH??!!
Well, I guess Gaia is talking and, as usual, we aren't listening.

Calgon take me away....

On a day that is enough to send you over the edge!!!...
I give you this.
Sun, sand and sea.
Various and sundry shots from one of my favourite places on this planet.
(I have never been to another planet so I don't know if there is somewhere else I might like to be!!)
