Abe's Quilt

I made this quilt for a darling little boy named Abraham. The embroidered birds were done by my great grandmother many years ago. Abe (and his parents) came to visit Philadelphia this fall, so I got to meet this delightful boy!

Another great performance

On Sunday, December 9, I went to the final performance of "Scandalous" on Broadway, starring my friend, Carolee Carmello. She was unbelievable - on stage for all but 11 minutes of the show! It's too bad that ticket sales weren't enough to keep the show going any longer. Reviews were so-so, but Carolee got raves---reason enough to see the show. I'm so happy for her that she got to originate a starring role on Broadway. Lots of predictions that she will get a Tony nomination which would be well-deserved!

Ida

Here is a doll I made for my friend, Peter.  He named her Ida after a character in the musical "Honk!" which tells the story of the Ugly Duckling. Peter is playing dual roles in the show, now at City Theater in Biddeford, Maine. If you are anywhere near there, it looks like a great production and lots of fun, especially for children.
