Remember a while back I mentioned some of my challenge pieces were chosen for publication? Well…my complementary issue of Somerset Memories Spring 2010 has arrived!
I couldn’t be more thrilled!!
Trust me…I was excited when I got the email saying they had chosen a few pieces back then but I can’t even tell you how much more wonderful it is to open the magazine and see your own work on the page.
I’ll be sharing all seven pieces I submitted as soon as I get the package back. The pictures I took before sending them off were really poorly lit and kind of fuzzy. Thank goodness Somerset takes their own beautiful photos!
I made a couple of quick ATC’s yesterday. The sewn one was a forgotten work-in-progress. It had fallen behind some stuff on my ever shrinking workspace. Time to clean and organize again I fear.
I also did some more on my painting. I should have stopped before adding all the green. Of course, I didn’t take a picture at the previous stage.
I may scrap the whole thing and gesso over it. Or maybe some molding paste. For now it will sit off to the side waiting for me to decide
So far we’ve planted:
- basil
- parsley
- dill
- yellow pear shaped tomatoes
- pumpkins
- petunias
- delphinium
- blazing stars
- marigolds
I plan on starting some more seeds but ran out of little recycled containers and my helper ran out of patience. :)
All of these seeds are ones I’ve collected from last years plants. It should be interesting to see what actually germinates.
