Another device to help me focus: a list of my works in progress. I’ll post about these and photograph as I actually progress. From the oldest to newest might be the best way to go, although I doubt I’ll proceed in this order.
- Fabulously ugly scarf III - still on the floor loom in the studio. Weave it off and fold up the loom. I want the floor space for summer.
- “Labyrinth” tapestry - looking forward to this one, actually.
- Skirt and clean Bev’s fleeces, send off to be carded and spun.
- Tobacco ATCs
Woven ATCs - back them and photograph. Soon, especially since this awesome ATC is waiting for my trade.- Second tapestry box bag - will probably be put on the back burner, quite honestly.
- “Elements” tapestries - finish backs, make a quilted block to mount them on. Photograph.
- “Mindful presence” collage, stitch, embellish, quilt.
- Add beads to the “dingleberry” on the closure for the book I made for Dan Essig’s class. You gotta love his warped sense of humor.
- Begin adding content to this book - a nature journal.
- Begin putting together second coptic stitch book before I forget how to do it (kit from his class).
- “Writing” collage - for lack of a better title right now
- Embellished cut-off shorts (a creative hit from Ricë’s blog)
- Begin a fabric art journal about my trip to Italy.
Carve stamps to fill in the missing ones from my “new” alphabet collection (given to me by Ricë!)
Lord. You can tell that I don’t have children. I do have a full time job, a vegetable garden, and five needy cats and a husband, though.
I’m particulary energized this weekend, because I won the alphabet stamp giveaway from Ricë! Am I lucky or what? I may have to erect an altar to this woman.
