Packing My Bags!!!

I'm leaving Colombia on Thursday for three weeks in the USA!!!

Today I'm finishing up the last loads of laundry...which is going slow...because we don't have a dryer here. Electricity is super expensive. And with the humidity, they don't dry fast on the line - even the lines inside the house. And we've had lots of rain lately. 
But, I've been making art every day - gathering things to take with me - and getting more excited by the minute.
This looks a lot like the last monkey quilt I posted...but it's number 2 of the three I made. 
One great, great nephew and two great, great nieces!!! I still feel like a child most days so how can that be?!?
Create your life,


annie!

I'm committed to this project , not only for the month of November...but for the rest of my life. :)

  7. Good luck with the drying, looks pretty damp there to me! The 2nd monkey quilt is as good as the first one and I'm sure the 3rd will not disappoint....so no pressure there then! I thought it was just me who felt like a kid still.
