Silk RIbbons!

Sorry I have been so sporadic with my postings lately. I plan on posting and then find the whole day has ran away. I guess that means I've been busy. I have accomplished a few things this week but not as much as I wanted to!I finally received my order of ribbons and this is the results of my first play day with ribbons. I like it very much ^^ They are a bit different to work wit then fabric or floss...

My New Studio

Finally we are finished with the studio. I am so glad it's done! Sorry I have been so quiet lately but not only did I not have the time to do any art...I had no place to do it in! Everything was a mess, and I made it worse by dumping everything out of the boxes and drawers to 'organize' it better. Not smart! :pI thought I would show you some pics of my new place. I just love it! Now it's not fancy....

Handmade Twitter Parade

This is a fun thing the girls over on Artfire are doing to promote the site and make people more aware of it. There are a lot of great shops and people over there, so if you use twitter you might want to check out the hashtag. There will be lots of goodies!...

The studio is almost finished!

This Friday we stopped by the Ikea to pick up a few small items and as soon as we walked in we saw two of the shelves I had on my list to buy and they were displays. They were marked to 40% off so we bought them. It was kinda funny because we dont have a car and we had to take them apart and pack them into pieces of old cardboard to bring home. I had my shopping cart with me and we put a lot of the...

Mushroom Love WIP

While organizing the studio the last few weeks, I once again went through my pile of WIP's. I showed you one piece I am working on last week, the old man sun. I also pulled out this one:'Mushroom Love'It has been interesting going through these old projects. I am once again happily stitching away at this one. I really love the effect and have been trying to envision what I should put behind these...

After the crash

Sorry I have been silent all week. I had a rather busy schedule and I lost track of the days but thats not the only thing that happened. A few nights ago I couldnt sleep so I got out of bed and came into the studio as I am prone to do, and sat down to the computer. Hit the power button and all I saw was an error screen. I did everything I could think of...still no go. Seems it suffered a fatal crash....

Finished

Here's a quick peek. I finished one today...

I love to stitch!

Sunday was a dreary day out so we spent the day working around the house. D put up all my shelves we bought at the sale and a light fixture. They look so nice! We set all our furniture into place that we bought and it's starting to look like a home! My studio is really shaping up. I have nice table space to work on my items and now shelves too. I feel so spoiled.I received a custom order this week...

They had beer tents, a merry-go-round, cotton candy, crepe and other food vendors and tons of stands...streets full of them. We found several...
