New Babies

Ramius and Rusty
My new Babies!
This is my new pulling team.   New Babies.   My son got them for me.  They are Devons.  In a couple of years they will be my pulling team at the fairs.   First, lots of work training them.  Can't wait to get them to my house so the training can begin.

What I have been working on???

My Watercolor class!
     I have been taking a watercolor painting class.  Took a picture of my picture and realized that
it really needed some more work done on it..
     This is the best way to check out your work, whether you are painting or quilting.  If you use your camera, it really points out what works or doesn't work.  I often use this method when auditioning fabrics for a certain project, rather borders, binding or block sashing fabrics.  The camera will tell you, this works or that doesn't.  Sometimes the one I think would be perfect just does not look good at all.
     I went to a quilt show and looked and looked at a quilt.  I could not make out a pattern at all.  So I used my camera to look through,  WOW, there was the pattern.    Interesting to do this.
