So...now I'm back (I hope!) and here is the promised picture of the wonderful paperweight that Paula sent me. The camera, for some reason, didn't want to focus properly on it. That lovely white dupioni silk (my absolute FAVE fabric in the world) was wrapped around it. Enlarging the picture might help you see the wonderful stitching Paula did. There are hundreds of french knots in the background, which is a tremendous feat in itself, much less the intriguing work she did on the rest of it. Thank you Paula!!
Today I finally got to sit down in my studio and play a bit more with my denim/metal piece. This picture should have been taken outdoors in the sun in order for the metal to show up better, but I wanted to show you that I actually have done something.
YAY!!!! HEY SIS! Glad you're feeling betters. It's absidly horridous being so sick you can't be creative.
ReplyDeleteAnd i'm liking the denim and metal---and wondering where you will take it in exploration----hmmmm
I have been feeling the same MA in fact I'm off to see the Doc this afternoon--can't stand it when I can't create.
ReplyDeleteLove Paula's embroidery.
Glad you're feeling better. It's a bummer to feel so bad there was not a stitch made.
ReplyDeleteThanks for including the link to my Smoky Mountain quilt with those other wonderful pieces in your post.
Im glad you are feeling better. Im also glad you liked the paperweight AND the wrapping 'paper' - i hope you will be a good 'greenie' and re-use it :)

YAY ... you're feeling better! I've missed you! Love the stitching on Paula's piece ... and very cool additions on your denim & metal piece.
