My grandmother loved bingo. I went with her on many occasions. I remember a huge woman sitting across from us who kept her cash in her bra......I was amazed. I miss my grandmother. She sure loved bingo.

There is a little map at the top, peeking through. I've not written on this journal page yet....don't know if I will as each time I look at it something new comes to mind. Maybe it will just be my "thought generator".

I'm having fun with the Pure Experimentation "Remains of the Day" journal making group. This is my first round, I used some old tie silk and vintage lace that my friend Sandy gifted me. I'm not sure I'm please with it and so I'm off to work on another one today.

Stitch Alchemy Pony and Heart

The pony inspiration came from Samantha Jenkins.
Take a look at her charming pony ornament
in the most current Cloth Paper Scissors.
On page 67 she even provides the
pony pattern.

Stitch Alchemy Bird Crazy

I'm loving these birds !!!!

Studio Cleanup

It isn't one of those studios you see in the magazine....
how in the world do they ever do anything in such
pristine surroundings?????? I have precious little
time for creativity and use what I do have to make art....
not that there is anything wrong with the
"beautiful studio"
but jeez, I just can't keep it all together as it is !!!!

If you are one of those
"beautiful studio" people,
please tell me
HOW DO YOU DO IT !!!
Come to
my house and gussy up this space !!

These shelves are so cool !!!!
My husband is a GOD......
