All I want to do is feel good and get into my art room to really get into it...I miss machine sewing and know I am way overdue. Sigh. I did dig out an older project and revive it by cutting it out from a failed and forced background design so that it will be a shaped piece, like my skull. I have a theme, and am hand embroidering it, to be followed by the yummy beads, of which I have been accumulating too many these days! A lot of great beads (and bead sales) have become available lately at the local art superstores. I am a bead-piggy and can not stop the decadent consumption of the glittery little buggers. Every type of bead has expressive potential -- its texture, finish, shape, size, material. I just love them. Even found some cute ceramic parrot beads at A.C. Moore to go with the adorable ones Signe gave me last weekend -- a necklace and earring set is in order!!
Coffee cup number three, and still waiting for the legs. Oy. Gotta get moving, so the video showing my beloved beads being created in China will have to suffice. Cheers to a Saturday!
