| My Goodies from Leanne Loftus |
I just love the color blue, match it with earth colors and I am ecstatic!
It's funny, you are paired with someone who you do not know and yet Lori Anderson chose my partner, Leanne of First Impression Design, who sent me just that---the colors of nature, with the focal piece being blue~How cool is that?
The textures of the colors and the rawhide were comfortable in
my hands and held a visual appeal as you can see. Sometimes creating pieces takes me sooooo long, but somehow this just worked and worked up fast! Must have been the BLUE, right-lol~
I think timing is everything and I desperately needed a distraction, but that is for another post~ Anyhow, it was a lovely day and distract I did. I posted myself outdoors under my cedar tree and just got busy. I look forward to the day when my tools are already in the outdoor environment of a workshed, but for right now I don't mind transporting my tools and supplies. Good exercise as I always need ok forget something in the 5th wheel={house}. Good things come to those who wait, yes they do. So that stated and without further ado here is the link to blog hop the websites of all the people who Lori so graciously joined to create this event. I know I'll be taking my time to peruse the collection of goodies everyone has created. Hey and I still have a stash to make more lovely pieces! Thank you Leanne for a beautiful soup mix to work with:-)
~~~~Now for my reveal~~~~~

ReplyDeleteI love it -- but you know what I really love? The vision of you sitting under the tree. That is just such a peaceful thought, and brings back memories of our last house. I had a hammock under a tree and that was my go-to place to just totally relax.
ReplyDeleteI hope you participate again next year!
It looks as though you executed that soup just the way it was intended. . .as though it was destined to become your lovely necklace. Nicely done!
