Active Week

Hello,

   This last week was a busy one for me.   I stated out last Friday by working the Pricilla Sale.   I worked the embellishment and accessory tent with Deb.

 

 

 

 

There were lots of costumers in the afternoon and my friend Sharon purchased one of the many coats .

They did a booming business in the fabric tent too and  I will admit I even added  a few yards to my stash.

 

 

 

 

Garments were the big ticket items and  these three gals also purchased beauties.

Then on Sat we had even more guests.   We packed up at 5 and went home exhausted for a second day.      There are still lots of goodies that will be sold of later.

  Monday I went on a walk along Onondaga lake with Wendy and granddaughter Alexis.   We spotted this Baldeagle. ( he is on the big curved branch, lower center.    We had a good time and enjoyed the walk.

 

 

 

Tue was the Diva meeting.    We took down the show at the Unitarian Church after our meeting.   This work is by Threaea.

 

 

 

 

Alice had lots to share , but I loved  this crow piece the most.

 

 

 

 

 

 Mary showed her African pieces again.   They are so strong graphicly I think.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Denise  showed this collage type wool work.

 

 

 

 

 

Maureen shared this work.  She triple dyed it and then printed over it with fabric paint and stitched on top of that.  If you go to QBL you will be able to see it in person at the quilt show there.

 

 

 

 

 

Barbara is building new work too.  All the fabric is her own hand dyed and printed.   I am happy to be a part of such a talented group of gals.

Wed the pixies had their zoom meeting.  They are experiencing the hot humid summer of Florida while I am still wearing three layers.

Thursday I helped Liz do some sorting and cleaning.     She generously sent me home with bags of  fabric.   All this activity has meant that I have had little time in the studio  this week.   I did accomplish a little however.

Progress Report: Conflict  I am now done  with the quilting of this work.  I am enjoying the challenge that it has offered me.

 

Hands    I did finish satin stitching around all the organza hands on this work this week.  It took about 40 min to do each hand.   I started the quilting in the white.

 

 

 

Leaf Fall    This is my newest work using some of my hand printed fabric.

 

 

 

 

 

Creative Assistants   I just added the squeezie paint  to this batch of fellows this morning.  When they are dry I will add the pin backs.

 

 

 

Collages     I did do my collages on Tue morning.  I did two as I will be away next week.  ( Marty and I are off to visit friends in Maine. )  In looking at these now I feel they are a little cluttered.

 

 

 

 

 

Felting    I picked up some new blue roving at the sale last week end and I just could not resist.  This on is a lot bigger then I usually work so it will take me a while to complete.

As I mentioned, I will be away next week.   I hope all enjoy the longest day of light in the norther hemisphere on Wed and the official beginning of summer.

Keep Creating
