MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

Just a motorin' along

 Here is the landscape as it stands now (yet another dull day here so not a good photo once again)...


- THIS is a pretty quilt pattern that would look wonderful for any season.

- HERE is a really cute knitted hat pattern that would be fun done in multiple colours to help with stash busting.

- THIS was interesting to read about, and there's a link at the bottom to more of her galleries too.

- Have a peek at the interesting sculptures by THIS artist!

Today's quote..."Pretending you are okay is easier than having to explain why you're not"

      Thank you Julierose. The truck will look better once I start adding the details.

    The sky in your piece is intriguing.
    I found the Herbort site interesting.

      That part of it goes relatively quickly but today it's slowed down to a crawl.

      Thank you Catherine. There's a ways to go on this one yet before I can call it done.

    Your landscape is coming along nicely. Knowing you it is slowing down to a crawl as you are getting close to the needlework/embroidery portion. Looks really good so far.

    God bless.

      Yes, the first part of it goes together fairly quickly but now I'm starting to add the details which take awhile.

      I'm having fun once again. The day I stop having fun is the day I quit doing them!

    I do love to see how your projects come along, even on gloomy days. Those trash bag quilts are really interesting. Thanks for the link. And I totally agree with the quote.

      Yes, the days here have been on the gloomy side but not nearly as bad as some places so I shouldn't complain. Just makes getting decent pictures a challenge.

      The landscape has reached the point where it slows down as far as production. Embroidery comes next.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
