Wee Chickadees

This weekend is our annual Art Fayre at the Glengarry Pioneer Museum in Dunvegan, Ontario, and I have been busy getting ready for that. I'm on the organizing committee, and tomorrow I get to record an announcement to be aired Saturday on CBC radio's In Town and Out morning show. Hopefully I won't sound like an idiot!

This year, I hooked a rug (wall-hanging) that was inspired by our birding trip to Amherst Island back in February:

Come join us this weekend! The Glengarry Pioneer Museum is an hour east of Ottawa  and an hour west of Montreal. Artist Vernissage on Saturday, Artist demonstrations (including rug hooking by me) on Sunday. Let's hope for beautiful weather!

    You are looking rather formal in that poster Kantolee. Is that you in your typical working clothes?

  7. Deb, you have a GREAT wedding weekend!

    LBM, thanks so much. Our chickadees are like your blue tits, only less colourful.

    Vanilla Bean, I appreciate all your support and Tweeting!

    Evlyn, I am afraid I will sound like a total dork. But let's hope it gets people out to the show!

    Andrew, I always dress up for the studio. It's a pretty good beekeeping outfit, too.

    Jams, I think Andrew likes Victorian women.

    Wandering Cat, thank you!

    "Jams, I think Andrew likes Victorian women."

    They are about the right age for me now.

  10. HWB, it was for sale at Art Fayre, but nobody bought it! I'll stick it on Etsy eventually.
