Blog Focus

Well it took me a little longer than an afternoon to figure things out.  Since I seem to have trouble focusing on just one discipline I will share information and experiences as they happen.

Be warned I tend to multi-task, actually there tends to be a minimum of six projects being worked at once.

As of September 4, 2016 on the urgent pile: My niece's homecoming dress, a custom fit undershirt for my brother, a life size emperor penguin sculpture.  Within the next two weeks I need to strip/repair/ frame and install an antique front door - followed closely by a new basement exit door same work required.  The garage roof needs to the stripped, repaired and re-shingled.  The flower garden needs some attention weeds and mulching and it looks like I have honey bees using a corner of the porch as a hive.Looking to the future I am in the planning stages of a beaded flapper dress.

All the while working on the last fine art challenge issued by my Grandmother - she challenged me to complete the entire alphabet in art, A and B are done and C (Cleopatra lounging on chaise) a large format oil painting is in process.

Coming up next:  Lessons learned, machine embroidery on chiffon and organza.

After a long hiatus I have decided it is time to return to my blog.  I have a new vision/direction for this blog and will highlight the changes by this evening.
