The Projects these Days...

 I've discovered the wonder of WonderUnder. I used it on quilting cotton to create a barrier for the glue. I think the patterned fabric adds a punch of fun and color. I had forgotten how much I love to bind. Its a great hobby with my lil Vienna because I can pick it up or put it down without much fuss.

This is some bunting for Vienna's room. We are renting, so adding color through painting isn't an option. I just finished sewing them, so the next photo will be of them hanging up.
 The Buffalo King needs a few tweaks, but it's on its way. It only took six months to get this far. haha
 And this one. She keeps me pretty busy. But I made her too, so I think she counts.

Crazy Piecing


I don't really know what this kind of quilting is actually called, for now its just "Crazy Piecing." My genius twin sister taught me how. It's kinda like paper piecing without the paper. It's a kinda of like a fabric puzzle.  I'll try to be sure to show you kids the finished product!

Apple of my Eye


My darling husband snagged the nice camera for work today, so you get a photobooth snapshot. This is the last of this little series. At least until I use up the rectangular canvas first....I think I have six or seven... So I need to paint on those before I invest in more square ones.

I am on to the next painting! It is a portrait, but on panel. It's stalled for the moment because...well...the drawing is pretty good and I don't want to ruin it by painting on top of it. Haha! How silly is that?

About Me

My photo
I am an illustrator, bookbinder, painter, doodler, list-maker, and wife. I love food. I am what can be categorized as a dabbler. I love trying new things, but I always come back around to art and illustration. I just can't help it.
