where life takes us...

I may have been about 4+ here.  
This was our passport picture.  
We were off to France 
with my Dad and the Air Force.
Mom had never flown! 
Let alone across the ocean with a
precocious child and a baby!!
Found this while digging for photos last night and
it afforded me a blog title ... so many adventures.

What a journey this Magic Carpet has afforded me.
Early beginnings.

Finished and looking fairly organized.
Not so much these days!

This blog has taken me on a few adventures.
The above photo is courtesy of a special client.
What an honor to paint this
on the wall of this beautiful home.
 
... and now, it's available
on either 18ct or 13ct painted canvas!!
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram,
you've seen my stitching progress
on the 13ct version.  It's to be a bench
cushion in my studio.
A place for my precocious
granddaugther to perch ...
or our newest addition,
a grandson to come this summer!
OR ... it can be yours!!
