Well, folks, it's taken me forever to finish her, and then forever to get a her framed - but here she is!! (sorry- the photo colour is a little off - it's not as dark as shown here)
I made quite a few changes. I added the bat and pumpkin buttons, changed the shape of her antennae, changed some of the colours in her wings, added sparkles, changed some beads and used fuzzy stuff on the neckline and dress trim - she looks like she has feathers! ;)
So what else is new? We just came home from a week vacation in San Diego. I've discovered that no one there wears running shoes (unless they are actually running) and that I am too old and frumpy to fit in there! LOL! Seriously though - we had a lovely trip and it's always nice to visit places that are unlike your own!
I've been working on a hardanger bookmark that I *think* I will give to my son's girlfriend for her birthday, along with some books. I haven't done Hardanger in a while so I really needed to do something to refresh my memory!
I signed up for a class at the art gallery today. I am going to take a drawing course. I already know my way around with a pencil fairly well, but I'm hoping to improve my skills and even learn some new ones!
The kids are back to school next week so we've been busy getting ready for that. School supply shopping and such. It makes me happy, but surprisingly - they aren't so much! ;)
Well, that's about it for now -Here are a few pieces that we've been lucky to work on lately!
Very pretty finishes. Great job on them.
