Well, it was once again sunny, breezy, cool and perfect for lawn mowing. If I thought the last mow after 10 straight days of rain was bad, I was in for an eye opener. Today took twice as long. The grass was so thick that about every two feet I had to tilt the mower up to let the cuttings spin out!!! I think I could rake up the cuttings and have a couple bales! Get the idea? But it's done...in time for rain forecast for tomorrow...
Remember the newspaper yarn?
Well, I decided to try making a basket. First I folded six sheets of newspaper in half four times and the last fold was in thirds...
I then used a plate to draw a circle to indicate at what point I would turn up the edges...
Then, using the newspaper yarn, I began to weave...
This is just my first test basket and it's not finished yet. I'll let you know how it turns out...
Here's today's Index Art Card...
Tomorrow - the car. I hope to find out what's wrong. They said to plan for a day long adventure (
sigh)...sounds like fun. Wish me luck...
Thanks for checking out my blog...
