Today I drove to San Diego for a meeting of the art quilt group I belong to down there. We have not met since September. Illnesses, travels, family responsibilities, and, of course, the holidays have all taken up our time. But today we had a lovely meeting with lots of show & tell (but none from me) and a fabulous Greek lunch served by our hostess. After the meeting I went over to Visions Art Museum to see the new exhibits that will continue to April 3rd. What a wonderful display of quilts about people! One of the best all around exhibits that I have seen there. Do try to see it sometime in the next few months. The artists are Jennifer Day, Sherry Davis Kleinman, Lori Lupe Pelish, Susan Polansky, Joan Sowada, and Susan Else. There is also a small showing by Valerie C. White, but her work, unlike all the others, is not about people. Of course the Susan Else pieces boggle the mind. How does she come up with such wonderful ideas and how does she stuff her figures so tightly? All of the artists do beautiful work and the quilts are interesting to see close up or at a distance.
Then home about 6pm. KoKo is staying with his favorite doggie sitter and I will pick him up tomorrow. I wasn't sure what time I would be home today and I knew I would be very tired.
This is KoKo's friend Sophie who lives in San Diego. Her mommy was disappointed that I didn't have KoKo with me today, Next time!
