(Isn't that a great title for a blog post- so clever and original.)
1. Finished the base of a small applique quilt with mini charm pack pieces from French General.
I still want to add embellishments, buttons, charms or stitching to each square.
2. Brought in two tubs of stuff to my booth at the antique mall and redid a couple of displays. Sorry about the distracting price tags, but you can't sell the stuff without price tags...
I think I've shown some of these pieces on my blog before, but I've moved them around. Theoretically, that should make them sell. You just keep moving stuff around until you sell it.
3. Despite some of my knitting follies, I started knitting the LEFT SIDE of a cardigan. The right side is done, the back is done. I just hope that when I line them up, they are all the same length. Is that so much to ask?
4. Finished the second book in The Hunger Games trilogy. I know, I'm late to the Hunger Games party. But I did enjoy it and will read the third book for sure.
5. Read Altered Couture magazine for the first time. There are some really imaginative and pretty ideas for enhancing and embellishing clothes, a lot of it by repurposing thrift store clothing.
6. Was delighted to find a "Katniss" dress in Altered Couture. (Katniss is the hero of The Hunger Games). In the book, she wears a dress of fire.
This dress is embellished with painted matches. What a clever idea.
7. Listed stuff in both Etsy shops.
All this can be found in SugarPinkMoon.
And all this (and more) in Gathering Dust.
