I just finished my scrap quilt which I've been working on since
​March 11 or so.  It has seemed fitting somehow to dig out all the crumpled small scraps from past projects and to use this enforced solitary time to meditate at my sewing machine while I reflect on where I've been and what has happened during this time. The world teaches us that all the small pieces are useful and together they make a beautiful whole even if we can't see it. We are stitched together and we are beautiful and connected.  Love, Jane Price

I heard about a project called PPE Portraits, where medical professionals interacting with patients during the Ebola epidemic, and now during Covid 19, wear pictures of themselves smiling, since patients can't see their faces when they are wearing masks.  Studies, not surprisingly, have shown better outcomes for patients whose doctors and nurses wear these portraits. Here are links to info about that project https://med.stanford.edu/pcph/research/ppe-project.html
 http://www.ppepor

I thought it might cheer me up and possibly others, if I wore a photo like that when I'm wearing a mask.  So I have made myself a PPE Portrait and have worn it out once so far, to Weaver Street.  People smiled, laughed and waved at me, so I will be wearing it more I'm sure!  I plan on laminating one of them, so I can just wash it when I get home.  I did buy some sticky label paper, since that is what the PPE medical people use, so they'll have a disposable portrait.  But the sheets I bought were nearly impossible to separate from the sticky side. So I just pinned mine on!   Here's a picture of me wearing my PPE portrait to go to town.  Love, Kathleen

P.S. The portrait does show up a little better
in person than it does in this picture.

Lisa has been buiilding an outdoor Catio for her three cats.  These pictures are of the first stage. She writes: "Hopefully I will be making some progress on it so there will be some before and after pictures.
I want to add their tunnels and a tree limb for scratching
and climbing. They need to get some exercise and movement
from the catio as well as sun, air, entertainment and relaxation.
The same things we are all looking for in life!"

That is Olive above, rather extroverted.  Her brother Baby Boy and sister Sweetness were in Lisa's cabin. They are more on the shy side. 
Olive really loves to eat grass!

Below is the ramp from Lisa's door to the Catio foyer.

Here's Olive getting some excercise!

And here's Olive, Queen of the Catio, on her throne.

I look forward to seeing all three kitties playing in the catio! 
​Thanks for the tour Lisa and Olive!

Lois Hill, a chorista and dear friend who lives in Maine, sent this beautiful spring collage.  Some of you have seen Lois's work in the past, as her work was on the cover of my Count My Heart CD. 
Here is that light filled heart!

Thank you Lois!
