sights to behold ...

New Harmony is filled with such history, and we are lucky

enough to look forward to our wonderful

FLOCK Retreat for 2011 at the Barn Abbey.

If you don't know about it, drop over to

www.flockretreat.blogspot.com

and investigate. We are too excited!

Drinking in the Granary at twilight.

A Swell Show !

It was that!

And promises to be a much anticipated

annual event.

Hat? no. Purse? no.

Then what the h#$%?

A tea cozy. Yes!

A funky, recycled, upswing of a kitchen counter folk art piece.

Don't drink tea? Then coffee cozy . . . or french press cozy . . . or

whatever you want it to be cozy!

Each with it's own personality and embellishments.

It's a revival!

Some are renegade, some are radical, a few even revolutionary!

(perhaps I fabricate....)

Hand dyes . . .

And more hand dyes . . . !

Catching up on the home front after the 5 days away.

Will be back soon.

Much to get ready for. . .
