When I went to art school, I was just having fun. I realised that was the last chance I had, and then I would have to get a job. john-baldessari

awwww


And Ollie, my 5 month old helper. Today he is eating dead bugs and straight pins- and planting himself at my ankles wherever I stop. He WILL get squashed one of these days when I fall on him and break a hip. He is growing like I am giving him fertilizer so his chosen diet seems to be agreeing with him. At playgroup this morning on the golf course just as it's getting light, he was pretty much able to keep up with a full grown Wheaten who can practically fly!
The Formidable Little Ollie!
But back to work: Finished one of the vines, taking a break to work on the Unicorn Quilt next. I have to make a bunch of hunters so made some templates to work from to integrate into the bushes. I have a bunch of weird unicorns from Medieval sources printed out but I think I need to draw them out and make templates for them too. I'm letting the plan ferment and hoping I come up with an easy way to deal at some early morning worryfest.
Rough copies for size and placement.
ALSO, still working on my grandmother's wedding dress project. I had hoped to have it ready to print for all my cousins on that side of the family but failed- I need to do some serious rethinking on that one, the edges are looking pretty ratty from all the handling. The fabrics aren't tight enough to appliqué, so this may well be the piece I pull out and work on in another twenty years! And Sew It Goes.
Will ya take that as my Ahht Lesson for today?
