Ah to have a new studio...


Janniepie crafts gives a nice tutorial on how to build this desk on her blog. I really love the 9-square shelves she uses at both ends. I would probably use them on all three ends though...and then more across the back of the one side. I would love to fill all the cubbyholes up with a rainbow of fabrics! My space is sadly inadequate. For right now though I will have to make do with what I have. We are planning on moving in a few months. When I look for a new apartment I will definitely have a space for me to work on my mind. That and a small garden area. I miss that.


I did some work on the sun last night. Satin stitching with gold silk and then working on the rays. I am adding a row of a nice iridescent kreinik. It adds a nice sparkle to it and I think I will also surrond the body with it. I also need to soften the transition from the gold to the yellow of the face. She is looking happy and sparkly though!

Today I have to go for more tests, tomorrow the cardiologist and next week the big test at the hospital. I will be SO GLAD when this is all over. I think when this is finally done I will have to be on deaths door to go back again. I absolutely hate doctors poking and prodding, endless tests, long waits. It's amazing that sick people survive it! *hehe*

Hoping you all a good start to your new week. Remember...summer is coming!

  1. Your sun and moon remind me so much of vintage children's books!
    Good luck with the tests! I'm thinking of you.

  2. I like the setting of the room. That would be the next setting I'll have for my room.
