The addition of the left hand side of the spread includes the letters L and E and the number 3. The L stands for Lottie and the E, Elaine. The sisters are twins and were once triplets, but that is another story. The time frame for this spread is 1926.

Near the end of last week, Ingrid, my friend in Sweden mailed me the first of her signature of the barn journal collaboration. I was in awe of her work and only minutes passed before I had to start working on my first of four entries into her signature. I have until October to finish four for Ingrid and four for my second signature in our journal collaboration.
Sisters - Red Barn # 9 evolved over two days and is the right side of a two page spread. I have not completed the left side yet. This particular red barn was photographed on a barn scouting safari and is located near Silvana, Washington. The photo of the two women came from a antique store in Snohomish, Washington that I found on a day's excursion recently. The dragonflies flew in from my friend, Irene, in a surprise piece of mail art which included dragonfly ephemera.

It's so nice you manage to incorporate ideas and objects from your wide friendship group.
Oh I love the mica piece here. Wonderful.
I love this spread, as I do with all of your barns-work,and am so so proud to be a hostess for these forever!!!!!
I cannot start my work until another project is finished but in my head things are happening
Another wonderful spread. I love how the spread works together and each side can also stand alone as well. I agree with Brian- the mica is so nice here.
