My New Project

I haven't written in a while,  I needed a break, to be very honest. 

But nothing else can get me charged up and back on track but having a great interiors project to work on.  As has happened when a client who brought this antique, grain sack and several more like it to use to upholster a chair in one of her guest rooms.  My grandmother, Amalia, used to say to me, in Spanish and as she and I were working in her garden,  "work keeps one focused on the important things in life it is what keeps one sane."  It's what keeps me sane and more than that it elevates my spirit.  My grandmother, like my mother is, was a true lady.  I spent alot of time with her and she influenced me more than anyone else with regard to French style.

More to come on this house in Sonoma.
