Two More Kid Days Left!


The psych staff has a new office...  as in a 8'x10' space with bare walls and no windows.   Two of us will be working out of this space thru June, starting back again August 1st, conducting what is called "summer testing."  I've taken it upon myself to make this closet a workable space and made a Mary Englebreit panel into a wall hanging to bring some color into the institutional off-white/antique white room.


The finished wall hanging is appx 22" wide by 42" long.  I did some outline quilting as well as a bit of freehand quilting.  Nothing spectacular but it does add a bit of color to the space....

  4. I think a quilt could make even a jail cell more tolerable. Is this a permanent move? It sounds small for two of you.
