A glorious Week-end

Having just returned from Arches National Park in Moab two weeks prior to our chosen word it was easy for me to paint a picture of one of the arches there. Acrylic paints were applied to muslin fabric and it was machine quilted with coordinating thread. I straight-stitched several times around the edge for the binding.

Ahhhhh....all too sadly often.....Comfort

I find ice cream to be a two edge sword for me. I find eating ice cream can be a comfort...but the results of eating too much ice cream can be depressing for the pounds that it can put on. When the word was posted I'm sorry to say that ice cream was the first thing that popped into my head. My piece is painted with acrylic paints and the "sprinkles" are glass beads that have been hand sewn. It is machine quilted with invisible thread .
