And finally, here is a fused piece that is in process. I began the smaller blocks last month in New Albany, IN at a Melody Johnson workshop (which changed my life, Halleluia sister). This is the same piece that I wrote about last week; about how I attended a color workshop and came home, applied what I'd learned, and put on the yellow border. At the moment I'm calling it "Golgatha"--3 crosses and Lent and all. Any comments and suggestions would be appreciated. I'm trying to hold off quilting until after next weekend when I take a machine quilting for dummies class.

Somebody once said that people become artists
because they have a certain kind of energy to release, and that rings true to me.
