a friend and i have an ongoing "thing" about movies and t.v. programs. she's a potter/porcelainist, i'm a quilter/artist, surrounded by artist kids (two have degrees and post grad study in studio art). when we watch a show, the first thing she "sees" are the pottery and hand thrown things. the first thing i focus on are the quilts. it seems as though we can always find at least one "thing" that strikes our fancy. (with the movie "titanic", the first thing she "saw" was the pottery. i'm spotting quilts all the time when the hubby is watching the tube--there are an amazing number of quilts on all of the old cowboy shows, from the 50s and 60s.)
