It was a 6.0 quake and my chandelier and pot rack were swinging like crazy! Luckily we didn't have any damage but the old buildings in town did. Last week there was a 6.2 quake close to where my mom lives - it really shook her up! Love your new work - as always, it inspires me...but after a quake like you had my hands would be shaking too hard to even thread a needle!

Earthquakes apparently are not very usual in your part of the world, so it must have been really scary. - I love the new pieces!Ullahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02176085550753578481noreply@blogger.com
