Counting Sheep Blanket
30″ x 32″
I have been trying to get this one finished for some time now. Just couldn’t find time to sew the sheep on. I call this “Counting Sheep” and it measures 32″ x 30″. The blanket is crocheted with crocheted appliques of sheep sewn to it.
I love how the little sheep show up on the Iris Blue background. This one is available at Delilah’s or by contacting me directly.
NOTE: SOLD!

Art on Display
I got a nice surprise this week when I got an email with photos from a couple who collects my art. They live in Maryland but have been working on setting up their retirement home in Georgia in anticipation of retiring soon. I have enjoyed visiting with them when they come out to the Valley and hearing their plans.
I love that they collect original art for their homes. They have purchased several of my paintings over the last few years.
Here are some photos showing how they have displayed my paintings. Thanks so much for sharing these with me. It made my day.

While working at Delilah’s Art & Gift Shop on Sunday I set up a table on the porch and painted. I like to do that because people are curious and will ask questions about art and painting when they see you working on a piece. This is a look at the progression of my Sunday painting.
