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:
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.
What do you think? I really need some feedback on certain issues.
I’m also having an issue with the blue underlined links….they should not be that way!! Even though I have changed the color in the blogger dashboard they remain blue underlined links. Somewhere I have a bit of code messed up and can’t figure it out. GRRR! I’ve spent so much time hand coding that my eyes are ready to bug out of my head!
Remember…spring ahead 1 hour.
I’m not so fond of the loosing an hour of sleep part of the deal. Although it is nice when the kids sleep in….for once.
Lately I’ve been doing a lot of “fix-it-up” type of work instead of art. Such as a cover for our game table. This table is a white tile top table that we have had for a very long time. A kitchen table in the family room just doesn’t fit in, so a functional cover was needed.
I bought some table padding and green flannel at the fabric store. The grommets and ribbon to fasten it down were an afterthought. I was originally thinking that I’d use elastic like fitted bed bedsheets but I soon realized I was mistaken. That would have allowed too much shifting of the fabric.
I’ve also sewn some curtains for an awkward cubby area and a matching curtain for the stairwell. Seems odd if you don’t own a split level home but the heat rises up the stairwell shutting off the thermostat therefore making the lower levels very chilly. The curtain solves the problem. Thanks to my “always thinking” husband for that one!!
BTW–the fabric was from my folks house…the green fit with the carpet so I went with it…no cost solution… Awesome!
Today, I felt I had to have a break from all my domestic duties so, I started a painting…not sure what it will turn into but here is the work in progress.
Stay tuned…you never know where it will go with me. I’ve been known to scrap the whole thing, spread gesso and start over…
