It is so inspiring to take a walk along the lake.
Here are a few pics that I took during my typical Friday morning walk with my dog George.
I'm thinking transfers and a new series of pendants with the tree photos. hmmmmmm

 

CaBezel Jewellery Molds

 

This is my most recent pendant using the CaBezel molds.I created it waaay back in April before going off to Morrisburg. I've been so busy this past month that I haven't even been able to get back to my beloved clay. That's about to change though. Now that I'm all caught up on everything else I'm off to my clay room to create something new. I'll post pictures when I'm done.
The CaBezel Molds are sold on line exclusively through http:www.shadesofclay.com/

My Hoya in bloom

 
 
 
This plant never ceases to amaze me when it blooms. I have had this wax plant for many, many years and it is only in the last 5 years that it has started to produce flowers for me and I am so grateful when it does. Ahhh...the simple pleasures in life.

At the end of April I attended my first ever Morrisburg Polymer clay Gathering (MPCG)and I even had the privilege of teaching a class. For those of you that aren't familiar with it, it is a 4 day retreat that takes place in Morrisburg Ontario. It is hosted and organised by 2 wonderful and talented woman: Margi Laurin and Violette Laporte and this was the gathering's 7th year! It is so inspiring to be in a room filled with just under 40 like minded and talented people who are all just a little bit addicted to polymer clay. Our ages ranged from the mid thirties to 80 years young and we could all learn something from each other.

 

 

 

 

Here is just a sampling of the talent that attended.

Artists that have work in these photos include: Margi Laurin, Adria Filion, Violette Laporte, Cathy Malcolmson, Gaby Orbach,Barbara Colautti. (If I have missed you, please let me know)

 

MPCG is a great place to meet new people and make great new friends (like Pat and Diane).

 

If you ever thought that it wasn't possible for YOU to have THIS much fun...think again. Come to Morrisburg next year.
This was Patti T's first year at MPCG (I don't think it will be her last)
