| Day 2 Jan.2,2007 |
Morning!
Yesterday (day 2) I sewed early, made another Valentine postcard, and edged all 4 of them. I also got a small quilt top ready to go into the hoop. Then it was time to meet my friend Marci in town to do our hopefully weekly get together to work on our art projects. I had this one quilt top that had been bothering me. I thought it was done but had it on my design board for the last couple months since I wasn't completely happy with it. So I took that into town with me to get Marci's opinion. She agreed with me it needed alittle more in one corner to balance it better. So that is what I did during our work time together. I worked on appliquing some more of the stems for a flower. When I finish the applique I will share a photo of it.
After leaving Marci I headed to the bead store to purchase some beads for a few pairs of earrings. I like to make my own since I have a hard time finding ones that are long enough, I go for the 5+" long dangles with usually 3 dangle strands of beads off a central bead grouping. Then I headed out of town to go to the fabric store to buy some hoops. Bought a couple of them since I readied the small quilt earlier in the morn and want to get that in the hoop too. I also found some great Valentine fabric to cut up for my Valentine postcards.
That was all for Day 2! |

About Me: Hi! I am a fiber artist tryig to work on my art everyday of 2007. With doing this I hope my art will evolve and I will learn many new techniques this coming year. My goal is to be able to make my living doing my fiber arts.
I also make my own earrings when I have a need of a new pair.
I am an avid brick collector and belong to International Brick Collectors Association. I try to attend at least one brick swap a year to share my bricks and to collect new ones from all over the country. I am currently working on a hugh brick walk and patio.
Gardening is another love of mine, my yard is getting rather funky in my yard decorating. I go for the unusaul and people come out my way to see what I have added each year. Last summer was green beer bottles for the flower bed edging and bowling ball towers. I have no idea what I will be adding this coming summer.
