What is fabric bombing?  It's a very new thing, following the example of yarn bombing.  With either, a venue is surprised to find their trees, fire hydrants, and other outdoor features have been covered with fabric (or knitting and crocheting,) often during the night. Ever since learning about this, I've been talking it up to my fiber art friends.

Then, recently, I came home and found my yard had been bombed!  Not only that, but several friends pulled into the driveway as I did, there to enjoy "the reveal." How absolutely fantastic! 

Things have been challenging for my family lately, and I immediately recognized the fabric bombing as a show of caring and support.  I was so touched!

The sheer piece at left is just one of the lovely components of a very large installation. I've written two posts about the bombing on my blog, and have included many photos. Please take a look at this wonderful outpouring of love and support.

Last month I told you about a fun Photo Safari. Since then, I've included more photos and information about it on my blog. I think you'll enjoy it.

After recently finishing a quilt (except for the sleeve, etc.) I decided to take a creative vacation before proceeding. And by "creative vacation," I don't mean a vacation from being creative, but rather a vacation from tasks so that I CAN be creative. I get such an adrenalin surge from playing and experimenting. This time, I'm doing exercises from an excellent book about design. (More on that next time.)

I hope you're making time for creativity as well!
