Well I have missed a couple of days! Bad me! However, I’m back and blogging again! First, I want to thank Paula, the quilter for pointing out that the top wires on my serger push down…DUH! So, now my cover fits just fine! I might have spent the rest of my life with the cover teetering on top!
I loved the comment I got from Bibliotecaria about lack of inspiration on my post the other day. I took her advice and went and got a copy of this month’s Fiber Arts magazine, I’ve been surfing and looking at different art and ideas.
Yi Ting Lee – I love the idea of pieces that look like they’re in a rear view mirror of a car.
Chris Chiappetta – I love the picture in the magazine of “An Unidentified Man, above, worried about leaving his cat, which was hiding” (it’s a really creative piece).
As well as dug out a few old projects that just had some ‘boring” work to be done on them (I have a lot of these because I managed to leave a lot of the tedious jobs for last on several quilts/pieces). I also was surfing and came across Pat Winter’s glorious pouch and so I might try something small (although at her level of detail, not quick) piece like this to finish and feel I’ve accomplished something.
Visual journals are hard for me. Much like written journals, I start all “gung ho” and then forget about them. I feel like they’re a test….if I hate a sketch I want to rip it out. It’s weird. Maybe this is part of my block or using one just isn’t for me…..not sure.
Anyway, off to start my day and see what I can accomplish today!
