Sweep, sweep.


Very busy cleaning house for our first ever time hosting friends for a whole week in East Nashville! We usually miss folks when we come through, but our friends from York, England, are celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary with us! So, time to dust & sweep, make menus, and make a welcome sign for the airport!

Hanover Tavern



Moving the Big Picnic along to Hanover, Virginia, at the historic Hanover Tavern for their Virginia Heritage Music series tonight at 7. We urge you to get there early or make a reservation for the downstairs dining because last year it sold out. The space is fairly small and a dining room rather than concert-style seating. So, just a tip! See you soon! And don't forget tomorrow at the Columbia Lakefront!

Family portrait

It's been a while since I posted some sewing on my blog! So much music and music admin in these last nine months! 



Finally finished this pillow portrait of my Great great grandfather John Rufe and family. Pawpaw Avery from our song The Miner's reward is the baby I believe. Made with recycled men's suit wool and tie silks.
