Easter Bunny April brought me four fat quarters of quilting material. All very nice. All will be put to good use.
If I had them a bit earlier, I might have used the one on the left for the daybed. I am NOT changing it now!
Easter Bunny Seth grilled chicken for us all. Really good!
I got a lot more done on the rug to go in the library.
This rug is a little different than most cross stitch rugs. I wanted a little more pronounced diamond shape. If I did it on regular cross stitch, even weave fabric, the diamonds would have been square.
I did it on fabric that was a longer weave in one direction. Thus the diamond shapes. Cheaters sometimes prosper...
The only other mini-ing that I did was the bolster pillow for the window seat. I still need to put tassels on the ends.
Easter Bunny Amare painted this for me last week...I might just have to make this three year old's masterpiece mini. If I did, it could go into a mini scene. Maybe even over the fireplace in the library...
The amazing thing is, he didn't use a brush. It was done by pouring paint on the paper, in a box. Then putting marbles in the box to roll around on it.
He has been doing a lot of these and they all look pretty good for a three year old artist!
Anyway, it's Monday and we are going to see Fast and Furious 7 this morning.
See you tomorrow...
