A black pashmina similar to mine would be gorgeous - I love black, too. And, yes, I believe that is a broken cup in the collage.

However, I also have to consign a few items to the Land of Stuff Ups! They wait in a big round basket under my sewing table, and eventually they too get re-invented. Sometimes they become the muslin for the next experiment. xxPatriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685403215601517267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579555037165364084.post-49749055330295702912014-05-29T09:30:04.825-07:002014-05-29T09:30:04.825-07:00Gosh - your country, everything about it is as col...Gosh - your country, everything about it is as colorful as You.<br />So different from our light palette.<br />Naturally I like your pom-pom pashmina as I have a similar, only in black.<br />I bet you look stunning!<br />Is there a broken cup in the collage made by your grandson?

Even if we made it to Uluru, I doubt we'd ever get to the Pitjantjatjara lands. However, I can view the works online, and maybe I'll manage to buy one some time. Yes, there are issues with the sale and production of the art, but that is a whole other story...

I'm not too fond of mice either, Sheri, but fear slimy critters like worms even more! My daughter will no doubt acquire quite a collection of children's art pieces, just like we did. xxPatriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685403215601517267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579555037165364084.post-23621756630991633932014-05-26T20:04:12.081-07:002014-05-26T20:04:12.081-07:00Thank you Rosemary, I admit to sewing for the crea...Thank you Rosemary, I admit to sewing for the creative outlet rather than necessity these days, but it's good to have a hobby!<br />The classical guitar concert was my first in this genre - and I really loved it.

I can sew for myself, but am hopeless trying to do it for other people. I just keep pinning and tacking until I get it right.

Do you know that I have a terrible fear of mice - Yikes! The collage that your grandson made for his mom is so special. I still have many things that the kids made me when they were little, and I will never part with them.
