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.

Fun and games?

 As soon as I saw this photo by Dale Stewart (and shared with his always kind permission) I knew I wanted to play with it...


I had to wait until the dollar store had plastic skeletons available and once I got some, I turned Dale's photo into this...

"I Told You We Were Lost"
measures approx. 24x20"

FOR SALE!

Can you see the wee fox?  And here's a closeup of the bottom corner...

I had the orange floral beads in my stash for ages and finally found a use for some of them.

- If you crochet, have a look at the free patterns found HERE and if you knit, go HERE.

- I know you all were just waiting for me to share THIS!  Go ahead, I know you want to try them.

- I think I'm going to have to try out THIS process on my cutting mat.

Today's quote..."Just a reminder that watching birds is better for your health and well-being than watching the news"

    Are both the skeletons plastic, or is it just the right hand side one? I wasn't sure, even when I clicked on the photo. Also I couldn't see the fox, it's hiding well.....LOL Very unique, well done!

      I am lucky to have a great photographer who is willing to allow me to play with his images.
