<i>To share with you honestly I am not a quilter, but this one intrigued me and gave me a challenge. I like the design because each block has a little piece work and design. Once the design is traced on then you color with crayons, heat set and then embroidery the outline of the design. I am getting excited about the way it is turning out so far.</i></div>

<i> I will share a little about her, in the background you see the wings, made from water soluble paper, I traced the design and then sewed around it with mutli colored thread. When to my liking of the thickness of thread I then trim,wet and pat dry the wings, this was fun, to see how this product works.For the body and legs I used a light weight almost like canvas material and and sprayed with Tye Dye colors.I like the way the mixture blended. I found an old pair of stockings (washed of course) that I am planning on using for the hair and some clothing.</i></div>

<div style="color: #674ea7;"><i>God puts us in places and times just when we need to be wrapped in his arms. I was reminded that we were created to be connected to Him first and to others. Laughter, Oh what laughter I had and enjoyed. I 'm thankful for the opportunity to have gone and Praise our Lord and share with other women. Let me share with you some of the wonderful people on the Over the Top team this year. Authors: Andy Andrews, Patsy Clairmont, Marilyn Meberg, Lisa Welshel, and Brenda Warner. Singing Artists: WOF Worship team,Sandi Patty, Amy Grant,and Mandisa. I can't wait to dive in to some of the books and listen to some wonderful music.I thought about what my favorite part of this opportunity was, this is it a young woman came up on stage to sing part of a song with Sandi Patty. I believe her name was Lisa Smith. Lisa sang in sign language,she sang with such exuberance and my thought was sometimes we don't have to make a sound to praise God just let our hearts flow toward him. Thank you for the opportunity Lord. </i></div><div style="color: #674ea7;"><i> This post isn't about an item or object I created ,but what God has created in us.

<i>I made the short dress. I used a linen tablecloth that I purchased on one of my day trips.This is a little lighter in weight than linen fabric I saw at the fabric stores. It is very soft. Below, I have my dress hanging on Anne, my somewhat dress form.</i><br />

I recycled one of those cylinder box<br />
that wall decals come in and decoupaged this tissue paper on the container. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BEIfN6u3GDc/ThYOgRcsjKI/AAAAAAAAAk4/qmaOP0NjlF0/s1600/100_1413.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-BEIfN6u3GDc/ThYOgRcsjKI/AAAAAAAAAk4/qmaOP0NjlF0/s320/100_1413.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Working with cylinder containers are a bit tricking for me.I always seem to get the paper laid out accurately and then once I start to glue, the design is going the wrong way that I intended too.<br />
Anyone ever that problem?Chuckle! Here is a look of the paper on with two coats of Mod Podge.<br />
I love that product.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2_8tudDvwW0/ThYOsPMdQ3I/AAAAAAAAAk8/xzeQxyc3pQQ/s1600/100_1405.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2_8tudDvwW0/ThYOsPMdQ3I/AAAAAAAAAk8/xzeQxyc3pQQ/s320/100_1405.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />
While sitting there looking at the cylinder OMG I had a thought. I have the these word stampsby Anna Griffin. I stamped the words Love, Believe , and Dream in the middle of the open part of the design.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-G8tD7iDba3Y/ThYR7M2vx9I/AAAAAAAAAlA/g_DT_hz7bKI/s1600/100_1410.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-G8tD7iDba3Y/ThYR7M2vx9I/AAAAAAAAAlA/g_DT_hz7bKI/s320/100_1410.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>The top turned out great.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1OoDVSye0Vk/ThYS0tfjnYI/AAAAAAAAAlE/WqCAj1d47e8/s1600/100_1411.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1OoDVSye0Vk/ThYS0tfjnYI/AAAAAAAAAlE/WqCAj1d47e8/s320/100_1411.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Add a couple more coats of Mod Podge and you'll have a new storage container.<br />
Enjoy your day and include some creative time for yourself.<br />

Cut the strips 1" wide by 8" long. Then just tie around the straps. Julia is still going strong with theWWW's so pop over to <a href="http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/">Stamping Ground</a> to check out other desktops. Thanks Julia I love checking each week .<br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><i>I managed to squeeze this delightful project in my very busy last couple of months . While, visiting my mother one weekend we drove to Lorena ( a little town ) down the highway from her home. There was this little antique shop. I found this wonderful little baby clothes hamper.I am always on the lookout for interesting containers for storage.</i></span></span><br />

<div style="color: #7f6000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><i>Cute size.Don't you think! Here I'm spray painting it Ivory I like to use Krylon indoor/outdoor in a can.</i></div><div style="color: #7f6000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><i>I love using the handle for spray cans it so much easier on the index finger. Great tool to have on hand.</i></div><br />

<i style="color: #7f6000;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">First, I printed,ironed,and sewed on the fabric image.</span></i><i style="color: #7f6000;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Now on to the covering process. I doubled my burlap and pull tight to get smooth and stapled . I covered the staples with a thin piece of cardboard</span></i>.<br />

<i style="color: #7f6000;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I was playing around with what to embellish the side with and I decided to go with wired ribbon. I just twisted,scrunched the ribbon and wahlah!.I liked the way it turned out.</span></i><br />

Last weekend a friend and I left at an early 5:30 in the morning and headed in the direction of Round Top,Texas. Energetic and ready to go. The weather was great.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uiM1vryvWYw/TZs4OIFke3I/AAAAAAAAAhw/SpKRO4_LjdE/s1600/100_1211.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uiM1vryvWYw/TZs4OIFke3I/AAAAAAAAAhw/SpKRO4_LjdE/s400/100_1211.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />
If you like antiques,interesting decor, food, people watching, and of course spending time with a friend this is a fun road trip to take.Here are a couple of photos I took to share. First stop Marburger Farm,very interesting and unique antiques and stuff.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mnm6mkP8ZRg/TZs6Uw0mWcI/AAAAAAAAAh0/ENI44wCh81s/s1600/100_1208.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mnm6mkP8ZRg/TZs6Uw0mWcI/AAAAAAAAAh0/ENI44wCh81s/s640/100_1208.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Magnolia Pearl - Interesting, eclectic, and different. I love it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-l_kboJb25IE/TZs7WfiFcpI/AAAAAAAAAh4/uu4wShfwiek/s1600/100_1207.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-l_kboJb25IE/TZs7WfiFcpI/AAAAAAAAAh4/uu4wShfwiek/s640/100_1207.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br />
After a day at Margurger Farm we headed North on TX-237 toward Brenham. We stayed at a bed and breakfast called Farview. Steve and Linda ,the Inn keepers are excellent host and the breakfast was awesome. So take a break and visit their website <a href="http://www.farviewbedandbreakfast.com/">www.farviewbedandbreakfast.com</a>. The next day we headed back down TX-237 to go for another day of seeking out treasures. In Round top and other little towns along the this highway there is so much to see. Below is a shot of some concrete decor for gardens and yards. I took this shot while taking a rest.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WvAtkHNjie0/TZs-XsBUIsI/AAAAAAAAAh8/YFH1PwEpLK4/s1600/100_1210.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WvAtkHNjie0/TZs-XsBUIsI/AAAAAAAAAh8/YFH1PwEpLK4/s640/100_1210.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Here is a shot of some of my treasures.I was on a budget. What an enjoyable time to rest,search for treasures while spending time with a friend.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2rDE2DUeU0A/TZtB-AXQTsI/AAAAAAAAAiA/31dXjzc5EkI/s1600/100_1214.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2rDE2DUeU0A/TZtB-AXQTsI/AAAAAAAAAiA/31dXjzc5EkI/s640/100_1214.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><br />
Food for thought- Sometimes in our busy maybe stressful life we just need to stop and take a road trip even if its for a day. Hope you have a great week.<br />

My husband and I matched some of the designs of the existing cabinet to the new cabinet. Below is the bottom cabinet: <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yW6pwsBMu6k/TZNbJDGhYKI/AAAAAAAAAho/Ryed54yryLM/s1600/100_1136.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yW6pwsBMu6k/TZNbJDGhYKI/AAAAAAAAAho/Ryed54yryLM/s320/100_1136.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
Here are photos of the new cabinet with the added designs:<br />
Before paint and Gel Stain. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-28RBRXyvfhQ/TZNayFYJOTI/AAAAAAAAAhk/bmI_0E4ADA4/s1600/100_1142.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-28RBRXyvfhQ/TZNayFYJOTI/AAAAAAAAAhk/bmI_0E4ADA4/s320/100_1142.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-v-wsViefyO8/TZNfdDryYQI/AAAAAAAAAhs/g4z36O7S-qA/s1600/100_1143.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-v-wsViefyO8/TZNfdDryYQI/AAAAAAAAAhs/g4z36O7S-qA/s320/100_1143.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />

I was thrilled. My husband carved out the groves on the side.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iOn8yh_sbYU/TZNaSgaZk2I/AAAAAAAAAhY/BOIZZJ5NsH8/s1600/100_1202.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iOn8yh_sbYU/TZNaSgaZk2I/AAAAAAAAAhY/BOIZZJ5NsH8/s320/100_1202.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
The color is the same on both cabinets.We tried to match a few design. I am pleased with the end results. I also added new knobs from Hobby Lobby.They have such a great assortment. If your stopped and took a peek. Thank you. <br />

Busy!Busy! January has passed and now we're almost through February. I wanted to share a little about some rearrangement I did in my studio. My sister-n-law had this cabinet she no longer had use for so I gladly took it off her hands.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6A2-p4pkOds/TWc3sa0wB4I/AAAAAAAAAg4/uF77Ti744UA/s1600/100_0971.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6A2-p4pkOds/TWc3sa0wB4I/AAAAAAAAAg4/uF77Ti744UA/s320/100_0971.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />

Transformation coming up.Great storage idea! Don't you think. Let me show what was in this spot.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XhK6rqjJCiY/TWc5gKRU3zI/AAAAAAAAAhA/FzCHYV-FPEQ/s1600/100_0972.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XhK6rqjJCiY/TWc5gKRU3zI/AAAAAAAAAhA/FzCHYV-FPEQ/s400/100_0972.JPG" width="400" /></a> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> No it was not this guy.This is my hubby moving the shelves to the other side of the room.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OGhI9HJxB14/TWc_-wDTzXI/AAAAAAAAAhM/iOlUfqqyHNY/s1600/100_1138.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OGhI9HJxB14/TWc_-wDTzXI/AAAAAAAAAhM/iOlUfqqyHNY/s320/100_1138.JPG" width="320" /></a> </div>I think the shelves complement the wall and this side of the room.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qwPWzC0ZjLc/TWc7D478uXI/AAAAAAAAAhE/cJQsv1lx9AE/s1600/100_1134.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qwPWzC0ZjLc/TWc7D478uXI/AAAAAAAAAhE/cJQsv1lx9AE/s400/100_1134.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>The cabinet was white and I painted it a cream color and rubbed on a Gel Stain after it was painted to match the bottom cabinet. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-klj2BbWA5k4/TWc9b-CUcHI/AAAAAAAAAhI/blfAS-G49AQ/s1600/100_1136.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-klj2BbWA5k4/TWc9b-CUcHI/AAAAAAAAAhI/blfAS-G49AQ/s400/100_1136.JPG" width="400" /></a></div> <br />
Notice the scroll design above the glass. I was excited to have seen the same design at Lowe's and I purchased two a little smaller to attached to the top cabinet. I love it when an idea comes together! Don't you? Well just a short post to share some of the busy that I've been up to. <br />

Well today on my work desk is some of the progress of my projects.This week I am in my second week of a new job. So I am adjusting with time ,creativity,work and baking for the holidays. Here is a peek with my progress below.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TO0nq84EmyI/AAAAAAAAAgA/4HiOXYOtYy8/s1600/100_0929.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TO0nq84EmyI/AAAAAAAAAgA/4HiOXYOtYy8/s320/100_0929.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: red;">To the far right is a glimpse of the back part of the folder. The rectangle pieces are going to be the pockets. So far on my altered art the form I've done nothing as you can see. Below the form are going to be her high-heel shoes and if you can see the three little pieces that will be strands of hair (that's the idea anyway). My goal is to have these two projects finished by this weekend. So be sure and check back next week.Well off to work then holiday baking , I just love pumpkin pie. Don't you?

Wednesday #75Hello,<br />
Everyone in the Wednesday World. Here is what's on my work desk to day -<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TNq10IRDAAI/AAAAAAAAAf4/Mln-O2bZkt4/s1600/100_0916.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TNq10IRDAAI/AAAAAAAAAf4/Mln-O2bZkt4/s400/100_0916.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />
My trusted sewing machine and fabric. I will be making a hanging file folder with the light fabric. Two new pillows with the zebra. I love this fabric because of the colors are brown & cream, not just black & white. I think they will be great looking on my leather sofa.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TNq20Su8EAI/AAAAAAAAAf8/3n43B__S54s/s1600/100_0918.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TNq20Su8EAI/AAAAAAAAAf8/3n43B__S54s/s320/100_0918.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
This area of my work desk I am finishing up a joy wreath that I started last week . I am playing with my cricket. Oh! the dominoes and dress form I am going to start an altered art piece and enter Alter Monthly. Nothing like working on three projects at once. But it is so fun to challenge yourself.<br />
I'm off to visit creative minds over at Julia at <a href="http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/2010/11/whats-on-your-workdesk-wednesday-75.html">Stamping Ground.<span style="color: black;"></span></a><br />

Over the last two weeks I have the fun of enjoying Fabulous Finds for $1to$5.<br />
One Saturday morning I was returning home and some of those yellow, red and bright colored signs caught my eye. So, I pulled in my driveway scurried into my extra cash and off to the sales. I was looking for dominos for an Altered Art project. Look at one of my Fabulous Finds.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TMYO1SaM6yI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/4nyvpjUVEw0/s1600/100_0883.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TMYO1SaM6yI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/4nyvpjUVEw0/s320/100_0883.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
They were $5.00 a piece . I can't wait to get to start working on them . A good project for when the weather really cools off . Then the next week we were helping sort and price items at a school parking lot sale (fundraiser). I came across this:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TMYQVcOBVDI/AAAAAAAAAfU/BTt6y4gDS24/s1600/100_0873.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TMYQVcOBVDI/AAAAAAAAAfU/BTt6y4gDS24/s320/100_0873.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
This load of fabric was in a box marked $5.00. We are talking decorator fabrics and yardage not just pieces.<br />
It's all the color scheme I love. Let's go on:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TMYS8B968PI/AAAAAAAAAfo/sIV6Tg636sI/s1600/100_0875.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TMYS8B968PI/AAAAAAAAAfo/sIV6Tg636sI/s320/100_0875.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />

Ok! they may not be fabs to everyone<br />

Shoes!- WOWWI am here this week on WOWW. Julie over at Stamping Ground host What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.<br />
Click on over to check out a lot of creative ideas from all who participate. This week on my workdesk I am<br />
making shoes.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TKx2oLL0h8I/AAAAAAAAAbk/cowK-MJBfkQ/s1600/100_0844.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qR2hOQm3zKY/TKx2oLL0h8I/AAAAAAAAAbk/cowK-MJBfkQ/s400/100_0844.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>I received an order in Sept. at the craft fair. They are a great way to say Thank you, I'm thinking of you, name plates for a place setting for afternoon tea . A great way to hand deliver a thank you note in this high tech world of communication and what a reward we receive when we see the expression on the recipient's face.<br />
I'm off to visit other work desks. Have a GREAT day/week.<br />
