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.

Four? Check!!

 Yes, there are four!
(pairs of socks, that is)


This is the final pair of the set:


All are made with Paton's Kroy yarn using my usual generic pattern.

Today is Independence Day in the US.  I would be remiss if I didn't wish my blogging friends from there a happy day.  With all that's going on in that country right now, I'm sure not everybody feels like celebrating.  I saw a quote attributed to John Collins which said "It feels weird to celebrate our independence, when it's pretty clear we're losing it".  There's a lot of truth in that.

- There are links HERE to some really cute doll designs.

- And HERE is something else you might like to try if you're into doll making.

- For those of you who like to paint with watercolours, perhaps some of the tips found HERE might be of interest.

- If you're interested in junk journals (or just want to have a peek through an amazing example) go HERE.

Today's quote is from Booker T. Washington.... "Great men cultivate love, only little men cherish a spirit of hatred"

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.
