Art journaling

I've slipped away from working on art journal pages.  Beth reminded me of this when we got together this past week.  I've missed it.  After having an incredibly nice day on Friday, I found myself doing the "happy dance".  It seemed the perfect reason to begin weekly journal pages again.

Blue beginnings

I had a delightful time with girlfriends yesterday.  It was way past time to get together for a morning of art. I worked with thickened dyes to begin a blue series:

Pink butterflies

I think this will be the end of pink for awhile. It's been fun, but time to move onto a different colour.  I have a quilt in mind that will be a series of blue studies.  I'll see what tomorrow brings...

Pink bag

Here's a fun way to use all my pink samples! Front and back filled with delicious pinkness.

Rag rug bags

I brought a number of unfinished projects along to my son's place to work on while he was in class. How great to finish these rag rug bags this morning. Unfortunately I didn't bring denim needles along and ended up breaking 6 needles while sewing. Yes, I wove the rugs to make the bags.

More pink

My son has been making fun of me working in pink.  That's ok, I'm just happy to spend a week with him. Let the teasing continue...

Pink #1

I'm not a pink and lace type girl. I'm better  described as denim and boots. In my clean up my stash and workspace quest, it is time for some serious pink reduction. A few weeks of sewing with pink is in store.
