Things are getting more and more eccentric at Casa de la Swain. Changing styles in my textile work, falling in love again with painting and photography...and then there is the ever illusive quest for continuing creativity through working with Eric Maisel. Still on the road teaching, posting now at the Ragged Cloth Cafe and taking the pledge to keep handmaiden up to date.

A Walk down Flinders Street

Today I am cooking. Slept the whole night, woke up at 7 a.m. which is normal...finally made it over the hump. Even better, Sharon Hunting and I talked last evening and decided to get together today. What a wonderful hostess. She knew so much about Melbourne.....plus she introduced me to Chloe, a famous icon, which has been on the walls of the Young and Jackson Hotel since 1909.
To start our journey, had to take pictures of these wonderful carvings. Not sure which building it is but the carvings are on every part of the facade. Down the street was a fresh fruit and veg stand; couldn't resist the wonderful color and on the bottom left decorations for Australia Day, which is tomorrow. Posted by Picasa
