Two More Paper Quilting Cards...

The last two cards from September's Japanese Paper Quilting Card Class at CraftFancy. The first of these is a typical laundry day in a witch's house...washing the clothes well and hanging everything out to dry...everything.
The second card is a skeleton...he may not be able to talk...but he gets his Halloween message across with his beautiful eyes.

Class Samples...

 Some of my classes had to be cancelled recently....so some of the samples didn't really get to be shown.  These are two of the cards from the Japanese Paper Quilting Class at CraftFancy. The first card shows a baby owl meeting a bat for the first time....he's not too sure what to make of it. The second card is a white Jack 'O Lantern with a couple of bat friends.

When someone that you love dies...sometimes it's hard to put your feelings into words...this poem by W.H.Auden says it all.

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last fore ever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep upt the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.
