Hi there. Potato Chips, not cookies, are my nemisis. I was good today and had tea all day and had a salad snack. Friends have gone home and it's time to get dinner ready. But thought I'd show you what I did today. After ~1hr of straightening, I soaked my Inktense Daylily in the tub and then layed it out to block.[ATTACH=CONFIG]419023[/ATTACH] I'm really pleased with this project. I did figure out the medium so the ink wouldn't bleed.
Then I got the bindin & label on "At Home in the Forest". The dark spots look like caves, so I appliqued a bear, he's hiding. The quilting is couched Razzle Dazzle designed by Ricky Tims from Superior Threads. It's suppose to be the trees in the forest. Then while straightening I found some fish the perfect size to applique and have some metal bead fish to embelish him. [ATTACH=CONFIG]419024[/ATTACH]
Yesterday while in Fresno, checked in at Sierra FiberArts about classes and got a list of what I need to get to them (samples, description and supply lists) for my upcoming classes. So I got started on the samples for FM class "Dancing with Thread II". It's the size of a fat quarted so it can be finished during class.[ATTACH=CONFIG]419025[/ATTACH]
Also, while straightening, I found projects I thrown in a corner and the 3 of us are going to a retreat at Tahoe next weekend. I've been trying to decide what to take and these seemed like the perfect projects. Also found some "this didn't work for me" things to contribute to the raffle and started cleaning out scraps for the "dog bed".[ATTACH=CONFIG]419026[/ATTACH]
I'm happy with myself for todays accomplishments and will probably finish some handwork tonight &/or clean out the scrap box for the dog bed. Oh, one more thing, with 3 of us ladies helping, hubby was able to get the famework together for the summer shade canapy.
Tomorrow, it's over to my friends house to work on the class sample.
