8 that create: March 2014
http://8thatcreate.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 28, 2014. Here, back after falling down the winter's rabbit hole. I've been working on a few new things but mostly resting up, reading and drinking hot tea (and coffee). One of the things that I do in the warmer weather is to rust fabric and different fibers so that I have plenty to play with in the cooler months. I've been playing around with creating collages out of bits and pieces of rusted and naturally dyed fabric. The photo really does not do it justice. Tuesday, March 25, 2014. It se...

http://lisakijak.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 29, 2013. Quilt National 13 Opening Weekend. 69 of the 85 artists were there for the opening weekend, including artists from Australia, Germany, Sw itzerland. I'm glad that we had the time to wander around and see our work before the show opened to the public. I was so distracted in talking to everyone that I only got a handful of sho ts of the space before the crowds arrived. Once the show opened at 5. Pm, it was difficult to photograph t he art. But the energy and excitement was palpable.

http://lisakijak.blogspot.com/2013/03/three-years-cancer-free.html
Wednesday, March 20, 2013. I was 38 when I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I think it is normal to reflect on your life when you are faced with a life trauma. You wonder, have I lived a full life? Do I have any regrets? What can I learn from all of this? Symptoms of ovarian cancer can include:. Abdominal pressure, fullness, swelling or bloating. Pelvic discomfort or pain. Persistent indigestion, gas or nausea. Changes in bowel habits, such as constipation. Loss of appetite or quickly feeling full.
