Finders Keepers


Cleaning out, as I have recently done, has revealed all sorts of this and that - those things that came into my possession at one time or another.  Neatly stored away (or not so 'neatly' stored) they have been sitting here waiting patiently for one of three things: a)to be given to someone who would actually use them b) to be thrown away as if they were not worth a thing c) to be used in something new, something unknown at the time of their rediscovery.

I'm not sure whether having a 'treasure' hunt in my own studio is a good thing or a bad thing.  On the good side I say "Oh, I remember this -- I must use it".  On the bad side I say "What in the world was I thinking".

And so a new-to-me series will begin -- hopefully using some of these 'finders keepers'.  My trusty punch needle comes out, threads of all color and shade find their way to the top of my table and the fun begins...

Something's Coming...


Don't you love it when your work table is clear and ready for a brand new-to-you project?

Don't you love gathering up the bits and pieces that you might or will need to prepare this yet-to-be project?

Isn't the excitement just wonderful - as if you are opening up your head and heart and waiting for new things to appear?

Isn't there a bit of trepidation as to whether you can actually create those pictures inside your head?

Isn't life wonderful?


"Could it be? Yes, it could.
Something's coming, 
something good,
If I can wait!
Something's coming, I don't know what it is,
But it is
Gonna be great!"

Coming back to...

...finish up the background on this piece.  Thank you again Brenda Gervais for your lovely designs.

The most exciting thing about coming home is seeing designs all traced onto Weaver's cloth and ready for stitching.  Lots of fun hours ahead of me here.
