Something Different To Keep Me Sane



Well here I am after a while being away. School holidays makes it very difficult to get any time to myself. But I have been working on this...







.

Here are some shots of the feathers that I am putting in between all that colour...







I love doing these things, and then I go around the edges and it really makes them stand out.









I also lost 600grams how cool is that!!! It took me two weeks but I am still very excited. I am doing really well this week too. The urges to eat bad food are really strong but I am resisting. :) I had one red rooster hot chip the other day and wow! was that so yummmmmm.
So this week I am planning to - go op shop hopping, dye some fabric, watch 4 episodes of "The Good Wife" while beading, go to the Temple, print some photo's onto canvas paper and stitch onto it, have a girls night and watch my brother run in a half marathon. Now I have a great life don't I??

Let's see what I get done. If I find some funky op shop stuff I will post them and you can judge whether it is junk or justified :).

  3. I painted with watercolours and then ironed it to make it permanent. I also wet the fabric so it bled and created that blurred look. It was so much fun.
