Oh help me.....it's MONDAY!

I just realized that Lent is not too far off and that scared the you-know-what out of me, because the church banners (previously rambled about here) need to be hanging by Lent!!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! So Anne is thrusting herself into crunch-time work mode and that is, for the most part what I will be occupied with.The following pics are of the tidbits to make said banners; twelve yards of hand dyed linen---oh yes, that about killed me, and then the beads, trim, etc. that go ON the twelve yards of hand dyed linen. (the sedatives I will require are NOT pictured below) The second photo seems to be a more accurate representation of the color of the fabric. It is actually very saturated and textured with the use of several dyes and the bundling I did before the dye bath.


That is the bad news. The GOOD news is I have corrupted my fellow artist and friend, Bernadette, to start a blog and she has loaded pictures of her exquisite work! There will be art every day there, as opposed to my occasional art inspired post and mostly rambling....... <:( Go to Artifacts and check out the wonderful things she creates! That will, no doubt, be a blog you will want to follow. All I can say is her home has the colors of Frida Kahlo's!!!
That's it for now kiddies---off to the salt mines, or the sewing tables. I'm pretty sure they are one and the same!
