I would love for you to join me (a retired senior)in my zany crafting adventures with quilting (waaaaay too much fabric); scrapbooking (will I ever catch up?); redwork; counted cross stitch; crossword puzzles; reading; and cooking.

SUNRISE, SUNSET, et al

 

I chose fabrics and sewed up the 
backing for "Sunrise. Sunset"
this morning...
That golden paisley is the
Sunrise and
the fantastique animals
 are watching the Sunset 
and
getting ready for their 
nighttime 
rest....

This piece will have to wait for
me to cut batting and layer it up
as I am using my table for 
finishing up my 
Kawandi stitching...

I am moving along to the center--it is
getting a bit 
"humpy-bumpy: though ;(((
the batting inside seems to have
shifted around a bit...
I am hoping that the stitching will
just make it look like more
texture!! ????

Supper this evening is leftover
bbq'd steak in a gravy-- 
a la Chef Tom--
served over mashed potatoes
and with steamed broccoli 
as our side veggie...

I hope your upcoming weekend is
a happy and productive one...
**********************
Oh and BTW:
I have been down the Youtube
Rabbit Hole and
seen just so many lovely
projects--
S I G H ....
😕😖😔😓😒😏

[Who said they were only going to
finish WIPS in August?--Huh???]

I really really love💓 
Ann Wood's 
"100 Day Stitch Book Project"
If you click on this pix you can see her URL 
at the top so you can visit her site...
I am SOOOOOO 
Tempted...
She even shows a new-to-me 
method of putting the finished
fabric book together...
S I G H....
As you all know ....
My track record with long 
term projects is not a
good one, for sure--
{to put it mildly!!}

eg: "Dark Days" has been
abandoned as is and I will
bind it into a table topper
to mention one...but 
I did learn a lot...

S I G H...

Stay tuned to see if I can
not be tempted....?????
