Can you even imagine how many…
I did a second fun Zoom class with the Ann Arbor gals. This time it was Double Reverse Appliqué. They made great progress. Just look. Jennifer chose muted colors and they worked beautifully. (BTW, the focus on Zoom is great. It’s reduced here because the image has been copied and manipulated so many times.) Colleen finished…
This is what I see as I exit my studio. A bow. Right at eye level. It’s to remind me to turn off my mini-iron, which has no auto shut-off. It’s a very useful tool, though, since it can get into tight spots. Recently I’ve been using it to erase lines I’ve drawn with a…
