This a cabinet card that I altered this summer at Sharon's house. I know that cabinet cards are really in, but I'm having a hard time being inspired to mess with them. Too many times artists make them look silly and undignified and I have no interest in doing that, especially when I'm working with photos of my relatives. But I kind of liked this one. I'd like to think that my Grandma O'Reada liked the Beer Barrel Polka.

So glad you put this up. It's fun that we both worked on the same photo.
Kate, I know you're working. Let us see some photos of the quilt, even if they are "in progess".
What the heck is "progess"? I like it when you can edit your comments after you see how bad they are. Oh, well!
Sharon, I didn't even notice that typo and read it as you intended "progress."
Kate, I love what you did on the cabinet card. Yeah, I like 'em too and still am not sure what to with them for myself - party hats and wings just aren't my style exactly.
I like your take on it!
