Memories of Bulgaria

Gipsy lane in the village .

Last night ,we were watching a program on the Knowledge Network, called " Michael Palin's New Europe " Michael traveled to Macedonia,Bulgaria and Turkey.It reminded me of our trip in July 2005.It had been a long time since I have been back in Bulgaria where I was born and raised.
My husband and I stayed in a small village with my aunt for 4 weeks and we made some trips to Sofia ( Bulgaria's capital) Veliko Turnovo, Nesebar, Sozopol and we went on a bus trip to Istambul, Turkey for 3 days.
That was an experience in itself.

Obama- Fabric art by Diana Bracy

This beautiful piece of Fabric art was created by Diana Bracy. I am amazed at her talent.
Here is a link to the this artwork :
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=12341410&ref=em

This piece took 35-40 hours to complete. The two main fabrics (the purple and blue) were purchased from ElleJays here on Etsy. These fabrics actually gave me the idea that they would look nice with Obama's image. I had to select 11 other colors to complete the palette. I love how the colors came together and I thank Linda for destashing and allowing me to purchase her last pieces from her stash.
