Hi Salley and Rob, Seems that the @s I have for you are outdated… So I went to buy a ticket for Liberty and Justice yesterday and the screening was indeed sold out so I just watched it on the net. It’s wonderful – the enchantement of the sets, the charm of the music, the folktale heritage, the irony of the posters (Burma Shave) make the attraction of our goofball and deadly administration plausible.
Bravo!
Eugenie
Thank you, Eugenie. I just found out that it’s sold out and am glad you figured out a way to see it here.
Liberty and Justice is fabulous! How do I share this?
Thanks, you can share it from YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGKyCmwRjlM&feature=youtu.be

Salley,
I just got the book I ordered from you on Etsy. I’m so in awe of you. Thank you for inscribing it to my granddaughter, Bijou, and me. She’s only a year and a half, but we spent some time before bed looking at fairies. Your work is magic. ❤️
Yesterday I tried to hang a scooter up in my shed ( organizing getting yard work started ) and the scooter fell on on hand – my embroidery finger!
While I am healing from a fractured finger I am enjoying your website!
