June was a crazy month. I had to travel for work three out of the four weeks, two days each week, which should have thrown off my whole schedule. And, to a degree, it did. But it also motivated me to work harder and longer in the available time I did have at home in my studio. As a result, I not only started Any Color’s All Right As Long As It’s Purple (for Neska) in June, I FINISHED it in the same month! It’s the small things, people. Those little accomplishments that make all the difference between continuing and giving up. Celebrate all the tiny victories.
I love the colors in this art quilt. Of course, my love of purple comes naturally. I dug through my jewelry box for the embellishments. Grandma Neska loved brooches; I was surprised to find I had a few that would have suited her. Please let me know what you think.

Nicely done, Hilary! Love all the purple and especially the lips. She did like to give kisses to her grandkids! Am looking forward to the final one in the series for Dad.
Love, Mom xoxoxo
