Construction Zone

It has been a very busy couple of weeks since I last posted. Basically, I got ready to go to Sassy Jack's for classes with Jackie, including Black Swans 2, then I went to Sassy Jack's, and now we're home again.

And while I was there, I actually finished a project!!!!!

I took an encore class for the Artisan's Workbox stitching roll. I took the class last year at Salty Yarns, but when I pulled it out to work on awhile back, I realized that my notes for the final step in the finishing (creating the rolled compartment) looked like I had written them in a foreign tongue. Actually, maybe not even a language found on Earth, and I had no idea what I was trying to tell myself to do.

So, the week before we left, I got everything finished to the point where I couldn't interpret my scribbles, and while I was in class, I got 'er done.

And it fits quite nicely in the lovely box Mr. Miller made for the project.

That wasn't the only construction project that happened.

The house on No Place Like Home has been built.

There are some flowers and flourishes that need to be added to this panel, and then I can start working on the innards of the sewing book. Which means that I may have something else in the finishing basket before long.

There's a lot for show & tell from my week at Sassy Jack's, and I do have some stash enhancement from the shop, but if I write about all that, it will take as long as War & Peace to read, so I will save it for another day. Meanwhile, there is laundry to do and a grocery list to compile.

Back to reality . . .
