(Our idiomatic expression for the day, and also a heads-up that I have an Azul/Blue exhibit planned for the fairly near future -- quilts of various sizes, assemblages and collages, probably even some decorative pieces like throw pillows, all at the fairest prices in the land. Keep your eyes on this blue-blog, and I'll leave you with a (blue!) photomontage of 3+ generations of Barnes-Mayo women...

Another idiom for the day, with a link to more-than-you-ever-needed-to-know regarding its etymology: www.word-detective.com/2011/03/blue-blazes/ Anyhow, I surprised myself when I realized I could also stage a table of blue BOOKS (cds, dvds of series like 'Boston Legal', maybe even 'blue movies' though not in THAT sense!) at the upcoming Azul/Blue exhibit!  I just realized that I also believe that wrapping something in lovely fabric can protect good luck! The other day, after carefully removing subtle effects of dust/light from the page-edges of a book I was selling, I made a fabric case for the tome, fastened it with an mother-of-pearl button in honor of my grandmother who loved abalone shell, and really sort of believe she's watching over that book in perpetuity...  Here are two more bojagi pieces that want finishing -- first they want ironing, I know. Would love to find an intern for the summer, if anyone knows a young woman, aged 12-18, who'd like to learn textiles while working in the studio with me.
