I do love snow but it is fast approaching the parameters of snow time and no snow time...like today!!!
I finished the houses on my fabric challenge picture. I forgot that I need to sew down the sun, so that's next. After that the trees - and there are a ton of them. Finally quilting and binding. I do like the way it is progressing...
As most of you know, I feel that my painting skills are lacking. But I really want to paint those crazy, wild, colorful pictures of flowers, houses, etc. I was painting with my grandchild the other day and realized that I was using a very inexpensive paint. So, I decided to splurge and purchase some Heavy Body (I read that as more dye.) paint.
I plan on spending the evening exploring how this paint looks as compared to the less expensive type. I'll let you know tomorrow if I think the increased cost is worth it.
On a completely different topic, how do you begin your day? I really like to begin the day quietly with a cup of tea or coffee and a short reading/meditation. It's been harder and harder to find something that really appeals to me. I guess I am pretty picky about what I want to begin the day with. I want something encouraging but challenging, something that helps me on my life's journey, something perhaps spiritual but not relating to any particular religion.
Well, after looking and looking and finally rejecting most of what I have found, I decided to begin writing my own meditations - a new writing assignment (but my own this time). I hope sometime in the not too distant future to find an e-book outlet (like Amazon or iTunes) to share my meditations with others at a very minimal cost (think a buck or two). I'll let you know how this project is coming along.
Hope your day is going well,,,
Thanks for visiting...
See you tomorrow...
