I have been waiting around all morning for the air-conditioner repairman, who just finished. So I will probably head out and enjoy this beautiful day!
I like to make all kinds of quilts, from postcard to king-size. I have a Gammill longarm quilting machine, several domestic sewing machines, and also work with a Babylock Embellishing machine. In the past few years, I have tried my hand at painting with watercolors and art journaling. I also throw in a little nature photography and the occasional travel or grandchild pictures. Thanks for stopping by!

New Toy
Today is my birthday...my last year to be a fifty-something! Charlie gave me my present this morning, the Photoshop Elements software. I have been fooling around with it all morning. It is not too user-friendly so far. The picture above is edited with a watercolor filter, which I think would make a lovely art quilt. Lots of possibilities! The software also includes movie-making feature in Premier Elements. I have been doing pretty well with Windows Movie Maker, but maybe I will experiment with this one.

Happy Birthday!
Happy BIrthday to YOU! I was just thinking the same thing when I saw that photoshopped photo...that it would make a great quilt...YOU could do that. I'll stick to tatting, LOL!
Happy Birthday! (My husband's birthday is also today.) I love the watercolor photo, and know you will have lots of fun with this program!
Happy Happy Birthday Jeanne. What a great present - I see LOTS AND LOTS of art quilts springing to life from that gift.
Happy Birthday! What a great gift - I'm sure you will master it!
After a glass of wine, this appears to be a realist photograph to me. Very cool. Love you sister!
