IN THE PINK, et al

                                                Poor Butterfly No 3 is in pinks...
                                   I have been working early mornings with my coffee to hand
                                             out on our deck...nice, slow start to my day.

Here is the DMC color I am
     using....isn't it pretty?
I love how it looks 
against the black outlines...

On the Diamond Painting Scene
I am working on her eye area...
[you can see the whole picture on the small
inset photo on the right.]
So enjoying this one...
I've never done a face before and
it is fascinating to see all the 
different shades that go
into her complexion...
*********************************


I've gotten these sewn into blocks...
not yet sewn into rows...
I am especially fond of those 
birds flying and the whales..

  2. Congrats on the win! I always admire your diamond paintings. Your postage squares are really coming along. It's hotter than I expected today. We had a quick downpour but that's about it.

  9. Your pink DMC floss is a retty shade. I have been into pink of late and purchasing a good variety of pink fabrics....not any large pieces but big enough to play with.

  10. Lucky you to win something pretty - and benefit from the inspiration it provides too. I wish I could go and sit on our balcony with my morning coffee and stitch, but it's simply too hot out there these days.
