They are a great way to use up scraps, and should hopefully shape up into a really neat project at the end of the year when this particular challenge is over. </p>Julihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07322326877076183850noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773464798038946159.post-56246484552062541902007-03-03T13:21:00.000-05:002008-11-18T22:30:24.448-05:00Fabric Painting<div>Today Zoe, Tessa (Zoe's friend), Tyler and I painted some fabric. Tyler's is still outside drying, but here are pictures of the ones that the rest of us did. We used the Setacolor transparents and then used the sun printing technique.

This fitness things is for the birds. <grin><br /><br />We're spending the weekend at Great Wolf Lodge with the kiddos. I'm sure that they are going to have a blast and we'll all come home exhausted.<br /><br />This evening, I decided to work on my 12x12x12 challenge. Boy is it neat to work in a manner that I haven't really worked before. I had no idea how exciting all of those stitches on my <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Bernina</span> are. And, I found that Madeira <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Metallic</span> thread is an absolute dream to work with.
