Day 28: ALL AROUND US!

stencils
These are being ordered this week!!!!  I am SO Excited to have these ready for the FABRIC COLLABORATIONS workshop! I know going in that the biggest hurdle is going to be all those that feel they can't draw.  We aren't aiming for art gallery expertise in one shot.  We are aiming for getting out of your comfort zone enough to see the possibilities and be excited to keep trying to create for yourself.

Years ago I wrote a lecture titled, ALL AROUND US, and there were quite a few blank stares from the audience so I put it away temporarily until I could focus it more.  The tools and ideas for Fabric Collaborations are intriguing and exciting!  There is something so exhilarating about being around a group of creatives all bouncing ideas off one another.
Have you ever asked a 'how to' question in a group of women??
We all have opinions and one is bound to be the answer:)

If you like new, different, experimental, and collaborative play, this is the workshop for you!

Day 22: 2018 Reveiw O-N-D

OCTOBER -- NOVEMBER -- DECEMBER
This one winds up the highlights (mostly:)
Top row is October.
1. My friend Della and I in Nashville!!
2. & 3. What happens in Vegas BABY:)  In the post I didn't show my new tattoo.  My girlies and I decided to get one to celebrate my 50th and when matching mother/daughter tattoos were suggested, I admit I got a bit worried! I didn't want anything too mushy that we may regret later.  My youngest (when asked what she had in mind) said she assumed I would design one for us...my heart swelled with joy that they are so proud of me!! 
My mind went immediately to my tulips designs (what a surprise:) and then to my new "Robin's Wreaths" tulip which had 3 flowers. I tweaked it a bit so that it had more of a circular look.  We each have the same with each having something a bit different too!! Mine has the little dots.

Middle row is November.
1. I am at Market with my new line of Tulip Stencils with Quilting Creations, a great company to work with. On the link page you will see a couple of tulip designs starting with RK4...  
2. To and from Market I was able to get some Autumn Color absorbed into my being.
3. Once home I finalized the description for my new Workshop, FABRIC COLLABORATIONS.  There are a couple of summer openings left in 2019 and the 2020 calendar is open for bookings now:)  Tell your program chair!

Bottom row is December and I don't have any Great pics...YET:)
In the meantime you can enjoy a past pic of my Christmas tree.  I love how simple it is and that those ornaments have lasted so long!


There is still another week to the year and I hope to wind things up with a few fun moments. You?
