Last year the Lincoln Park Champer of Commerce held its first Artrageous event. My Swift Swallowtails were selected to participate, and it was lovely to be part of the activities surrounding the inaugural event.

Just before Easter I gave a pendant the inventory number 100. I paused a bit, even though I had a few to go, because that was a milestone I didn’t see coming just a few months ago. To think that prior to April 14, 2012, I didn’t even know of this technique (Thanks Crystal and […]
Happy Friday! Once again, I’ve sacrificed blogging time for people time, and the notes that are half-way transcribed need to wait another day or so to become the information-packed blog I want to post. Strolling the magnificent mile was lovely, as always. There is a Holly Golightly in all of us, isn’t there? Some days […]
