My intention this week was to share my exploration of the fabric sampler. I absolutely love this project as its something to keep my hands busy at night when watching tv. However, you can see from the examples I was dreamin' big when I thought I could pick up needle and thread after 30 years. I admit to needing some serious practise prior to making a sampler as planned.
So instead today I worked on a canvas collage for my sons girlfriend Megan. I had a blast working on this project, using papers from a past Studio Calico kit and more paper that comes in my Somerset Studio magazines. I found a favorite quote that captured the message I wanted to send and glazed it finally with gel medium.
the quote is: "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams" by Eleanor Roosevelt.
love love love the day.... enjoyed a morning snow, cleaned a bit and created some art.
what more can one ask?
maybe a job offer!
