Latest Blog Entry
It's been a long time since I wrote the last blog. So there's a lot to share. I am delighted the work is out there again for people to go and see it at LaGuardia 's Atrium Lobby Showcase Gallery East. There are three gorgeous glass cases in the lobby of the building and I have 8 flags in each of two cases and 4 in the center, including the new Mexican, Mali and Zaire American E Pluribus flags.The show will be up until January 30. Meanwhile the project is always in progress. Right now my Mum has almost completed embroidering the English American flag it is amazing with rows of Tudor roses and heraldic crowns.
