After MANY years as a frustrated wannabe artist I was able to begin doing IT after quitting my jobs in education. I did infuse the arts into my teaching at every opportunity. Now I dabble in the fiber arts as much as possible. I also enjoy being with family, reading, playing poker, walking my dog, Beethoven and teaching quilting arts and other areas of the fiber arts.

Pirate and his wench
Sending a photo of my pirate, Bad Bill, and his beloved wench, Syl. The pirate was made from a Shirley Dugan class and Syl came from a body and one arm that I "inherited". As she took shape I couldn't keep Bad Bill out of the work room. He was smitten and she succumbed to his "charms"? and his trunk of gold and gems. They keep each other in line and reside peacefully together. They will soon go to one of my son's house to live in their tropical guest room

He's such a charmer! I can see why Syl fell for him. They make a great pair.
