Reindeer, Quilts, Etc...From a Man with a Love for Life
This beauty hangs on the hall wall and is seen as you enter...Sorry to say I am not sure of its name. As you can see this quilts also catches your eye.. Phil was talking to Cindy, I am sure about the quilt, as she is studying it..
Rhona and Cindy are walking to the kitchen where Kathy and Phil are discussing the reindeer collection that line the whole wall to the left of this picture..
Phil is pointing to his collection while telling us the history behind some of the pieces..If I remember correctly I believe he said he has over 1200 reindeer. He has several other collections through out his house and shared all with us..I could never give them the justice he does..so won't even try...One thing I will tell you is..one could listen to him talk all day long and enjoy every minute of it. His voice is so soothing and his stories, history so interesting..
We are a group of women of different personalities and ages who blend together to make for an interesting and fun group. Our group is dedicated to creating art using various textiles and other mediums. Our interests include sewing, knitting, quilting, doll making, purse making, felting, beading, jewelry making, stained glass, glass blowing, glass fusing, mosaics, and altered books. We share our ideas and our time, to create items that are unusual, traditional and fun. Our fun meter is more important than our gas meter. We fill it at least once a month during our monthly meeting where we have show and tell to show projects we've completed, talk about new projects and share ideas. And the food!! As textile artists we are such lucky people. We find pleasure in simple things; the colors of hand-dyed fabrics, a spool of lustrous thread—we almost hyperventilate when we go through the door of a bead store! How fortunate we are to have passion to create and to achieve such satisfaction in what we do.
