Café Olé, ©2006, Judith Harmony.

I suppose you, like me, have weeks when things get brought in and added to the pile. Two or three weeks ago I picked up most of The Blues from a gallery manager.

She, brilliantly I must say, had arranged a multi artist exhibition at a corporate headquarters. The largest hallways, one leading to the Conference Room and the other leading from the front door to the Cafeteria featured a diverse display of textile art.

So, back to some one else's work. I carried in a roll of quilts with the inserts and the wrappers piled on top. I paid scant attention until yesterday. I started unrolling the stack to re-roll each wall hanging for storage.

Hum. . . . Why on earth did she use a piece of bamboo to hang one of The Blues on. Shaking head. I kept working. Then I spied a construction sign yellow with hand stamped burnt umber. I've never seen that fabric before. I really began digging. Behold: Café Olé. I get to enjoy it while someone looks around for a missing slat. Not quite an even trade but this lovely goes home.
