I am planning to continue working on my art quilts, but also have some large collage paintings planned; all that stuff couldn't be brought into the house for the summer, so I will be spending most of my days in the studio starting next Monday. The only problem is there's no bathroom out there, so that forces me to take breaks, otherwise I probably never would!
Because I am part of a collage group on Yahoo, I have collected some marvelous papers sent from all over the country and, actually some from Australia as well. I can't wait to put them into paintings combined with my wood ornaments and maybe even some wax.
Journaling again would be nice, too. I haven't done much of that this summer because I have been cutting strips of fabric and sewing them, then cutting them back up again; it's a new strip quilting method I really like. Last night I spent a lot of time needle-felting fibers into some of the squares, and applying beads here and there. I much prefer my own hand-painted fabric to commercial fabrics, but that doesn't mean I haven't accumulated yards and yards of the other stuff.
I'll have great pictures to show soon. I hope.
Retired, but for some reason now busier than ever! I have been obsessed with organizing and clearing out things I don't have time to use... and I keep talking about it! The problem is I also find things I forgot about, which then leads to another project. How many different projects do I have going? Well, follow this blog and see.
