The first is a sketchbook painting, a self portrait of sorts.
If I was Queen, you've all heard that phrase. I tried to paint someone sticking out their tongue in disgust.
ever feel like that?
I had a very painful week, making sewing difficult so I sort of planned my feathered star hoping next week I can sew at the machine
I sewed on a border or two on this
I sewed on my Fall hexie star, and made this with the leftover hexies

it's to be a coaster, or in today's lingo, a mug rug. It's up for grabs. Who needs a little love? Let me know if you want a symbol of my love for you, and since I have to mail it from home, it has to be someone in the US this time.
I think I'll add some hexies to this piece, remember it?
as I said, life felt chaotic this week
my sketchbook, just crossing stripes of colors, then some inks... yep...
these came from the prompts on this video...
easy and interesting, zen to watch paint dance on paper, and doodled with ink
