Busy work
Here are those new batiks, all washed and pressed and ready to go!
I guess I am ready to move away from the greens which figured so prominently in the last piece!
I’ve been pretty busy since last I posted, and have tied up many loose ends. With the coverage of the hurricane in the background I did some folding and packaging of patterns, inventory and straightening up supplies, filling and packing orders to mail yesterday, and packing and shipping the quilts for Houston. I re photographed POPPY! and got the cover prepared, and sent off for printing. Also caught up on the books to date! So I feel like I have accomplished quite a lot even though it is not very visible.
Rain has been forecast but has not materialized here, for us, though it poured on me in Topeka yesterday and curtailed some of the shopping I had intended to do while in town. I guess I will need to water the plants if it doesn’t happen very soon. I really want a nice soaking rain so I can pull some more weeds!
Found some more time to read the Stephen King book – and yes, of course there are monsters! But it’s good, very art oriented this time.
Today I will get started writing and preparing the pattern for POPPY !…..
Must get THAT out of the way before I even think about sewing!

Gorgeous fabric!!! I’ll share rain with you… we’ve had over 5 inches since yesterday. It’s a nice, slow, soaking drizzle. You can see my perennials smile as they soak it up. You go girl with the patterns. Gwynette

Whoowee! I guess you are changing your palette – gorgeous fabrics. Reminds me of that rooster I tried so hard to photograph. Glad you have caught up on your books, it doesn’t pay to get behind – eventually it must be done. I’ve been missing you, hope you can post or write more often. Love, Del
