May Color Challenge

I'm trying to take on the "Color Challenge" that Vicki & Judy host. This is the picture that has been chosen for May.

We are to make something with these colors. So .... here's my fabric that my sister Emily helped me pick out.



And here I have cut out the pieces for a small crib quilt.

Emily & I are having fun today. She is making Wonky Houses improvisationally and I'm cutting and making some Pineapple Square in a Square blocks.

Postcards to Columbus

Joel had an old pickup truck that he used for feeding catfish. It was old and beat up and I decided it would make a good subject to be photographed. Using those pictures last week, I made these postcards for Postcards to Columbus . The pictures were tweaked on the computer and then printed on fabric that was ironed to freezer paper and sent through the printer.

The Ole Clunker

The Open Door

Right Door

These postcards will be for sale at the Location of Exhibition: Renee Reedy Studio | 101 5th Street South | Columbus, MS 39701 (below Cafe on Main) for the month of May, 2012.

You can see other postcards here and here.

We welcome a new granddaughter into our family.

Baby Talya Renee was born to Joel and Sheila weighing 4 lbs. and 6 oz. She had to go to Tupelo to be watched because of sleep apnea.

I got to fly to Tupelo ...

with Joel ...

... and Georgi ...

... to see Sheila & the new baby. We had a pleasant supper at Sonic.

These quilts lined the hallway of the NICU. Each hand represents a preemie that survived.

Happy Birthday, Diane

I had a lot of fun making this birthday "card" on the spur of the moment for Diane.
