A New Project

My friend Sherry has asked me to make a sewing machine cover for her.  She sent me color samples and a design idea.  I already had this mauve batik fabric and I think it will be fun to start adding beads and fancy stitches to it.

It has been a very long time since I used a tissue paper pattern (provided by Sherry) and I'm eager to start this project.

2015 Documented Life Project - The Journal

For 2015, the ladies from "Art to the 5th" have suggested using a Dylusions 11 3/8" x 8 1/4" journal.  It is much larger than last years journal and I really like having more space to create on.

We will be receiving weekly art challenges and journal prompts every Saturday.  The first week is to use book paper and the prompt is "Be Your Own Goal Keeper".  I have chosen to use the left side of the page for a weekly planner and to add little memories of the weeks activities.

This is a great way to include art in your life and to have a wonderful journal at the end of the year.

Moleskine Journal Cover

I finally finished the cover for my 2014 Documented Life Journal.  It has been a great year of weekly art and the 2015 journey has begun.
