Well another year has flown by and while i have been busy sewing, stitching and quilting.
This year hubby took the month of July for vacation. One of our day trips was to the Museum of History in Ottawa. I have taken numerous photos showing the ingenuity of the beading and painting on skins by our indigenous people. Other pieces included show embroidery and beading that looks like embroidery. Enjoy the photos which will be uploaded in a few minutes.
