It's got Aqua scraps, and one of my signature flower pins
|
creatively speaking this week, I overcame 4 migraines and a chiro appt to sew this hat, some dragonflies in two sizes, my second color block of the month for RSC and onto my ongoing purple and green strip piece.
AND
painted a watercolor again too.
(I ran into a fellow poodle lover too, and she's looking for us to have a new love in our lives)
on with the show
On a daily long walk I look for the color of the month, and this time found these two daisy sculptures in AQUA... making the house look like it was looking at ME heh heh
 |
little owl sculpture between them |
I did the scrap strip block in aqua to teal shades for this month, I mean, 4 blocks
you choose two strips, sew them together... here are the four of them on my table, ready to cross cut...
resew, then cut again and resew as these blocks
so fast and easy, a bit of matching... the hard part will be when I put all the blocks together into a top!!
my friend Cindy sent the jellyfish fabric to me for my B-day in May and I'm using it! each fabric chosen for this block is fun to see. one is the Jenny Beyer fabric for a shop hop in Md/.VA one year, one is from a challenge, the others were in scraps
worked on this one and thought Maybe long stems to the print at the top looks like growing gardens??
the dragonflies will be for next week, I'm loving making them with turquoise scraps
the painting...
was another color study using inktense inks.... wet paper, drop colors, spread with brush sideways to create some horizontal movement
I didn't like it, but then looked closer and saw a face in shadows,,,, yep, lips, neck, cheek.... I rushed to sketch in the face
oy! the light was different downstairs than in the studio, but I sort of saw it....
husband's comment? : "I liked it better with the abstract colors, they were just calming"
well, I gotta go with what I see....
I also see a heart in that sun color back there....
so I'm working on various things, might even bead this week God willing and the back holds out
