Jaynie's Class and More

On Saturday Jaynie led a class on creating realistic and imaginary leaves with paints, sheers, crayons, thread, and paper.

It looks like the ladies had glasses of creative juice in front of them!  And it worked as what they did looks amazing.  Take a peek.












The rest of this blog entry is about my new year's resolution and it's also my open fan letter to Jill.

My new year's resolution is to work my way through me stash so if you catch me in a fabric shop, come over and slap my hands.

I took Jill's strip-twist class a year or two ago and have decided the pattern from that is the perfect one to use up all my odds and ends that don't fit into any of my other plans.  Thanks, Jill, for the super-easy, hardly-any-pinning, can't-go-wrong pattern.  By the looks of my fabrics that aren't yet stripped and twisted, by the time I'm finished, I should have a wall to wall quilt rug for my basement!
