Workshop Girl

I just started this great workshop put on by christy tomlinson it is called She Art Girls. It is a 3 week on-line course doing mixed media art. I know I am a quilter and a fabric lover, but sometimes you need to do other things to be able to think outside the box. This is my first girl and I plan on making three in total. I would like them to hang in my bathroom. I hope it doesn't look to busy. It was fun to do, although a little messy with stamps, inks paints etc. This piece is on a 8 x 10 canvas.

My New Pincushion and goodies....

I wasn't in the greatest mood friday ( which fortunately for me doesn't happen very often). However it sure changed in a hurry. My husband brought the mail home and to my delight this was in one of the packages. I participated in a pincushion swap and I got the good end of the deal. Not only was there a beautiful pincushion, but a tiny holder for my embroidery scissors, a needle case with my initial stitched on the front, and not one but two chocolate bunny bars and a lovely handwritten note. It was such a joy to open, I felt like christmas. I only wish that Linda would have included her blog address so that I could link up to her. If your out their and reading this please forward your address and thank you so much for making my day.

Ice... Ice.... Baby

I consider myself in reasonably good shape, however I started a new workout class last night and woke up this morning with a pulled shoulder muscle and two popped ribs. So I was at the chiropractor this morning and on the lounge chair all day icing my back and shoulder. I have another new class tomorrow night. I might have to take it a little easier. I was hoping to sew today and do some screening, that won't be happening. Looking forward to quilt guild tonight a lady is speaking on her history of art quilting. I should have lots of photo's for you tomorrow. Enjoy your day .
