A Page From My Sketchbook

I haven't posted very much lately, but it is not because I haven't been busy. It is because I have been working and working on
Karen Ruane's Alchemy class!
The new piece is coming along and so is the sketchbook that goes with it. I was not happy with any of the paper in my various sketchbooks, but then I remembered I had "made" some papers from layers of magazine pages, stitched, gessoed and painted. I got those out and they are just right for this project. Then of course, I had to make some more pages......

Something I am working on...... 

Storage Container

Isn't this cool? I read about using these bamboo steamers for storage containers in Martha Stewart's Living. I bought this one new, but I think I will look around for them in the thrift stores. I meant to use it for projects as I like to have all the things for a given project together in a tray or a basket, but the Pearl Cotton fit in there so nicely. The next one will be for projects.....

A Winter Wonderland

This is what we woke up to this morning!

Pockets

Hanging Pockets
A way for me to use my extra embroidered pieces!
An idea I liked from Linda and Laura Kemshall's web site.
