Cross Stitchin' in Brooklyn

Well here it is...my very first cross-stitch project.  My lovely and talented friend Kimberly taught me to cross stitch the other week.  It was easy to do and so rewarding! Just look at my new friend Mr. Squirrel!  Kimberly makes and sells these "how-to" cross stitch kits so just check out her blog chez sucre chez.  She creates and sells many delightful items.  I think this week I am going to purchase some cross-stitch materials and get started on my own projects.  I feel so inspired and excited to start creating art! 

The Philadelphia Art Museum

I took a trip to Philly Sunday May 4 with my father and we went to see the Frida Kahlo exhibit.  It's rare there is ever a huge collection of her work being shown like this, so I had to go!  She is one of my favorite artists and the show was amazing and inspiring.  My two cousins, Lindsey and Arielle also met us.  It was a lovely day filled with fantastic art, cheese steaks, family and South Street.
