All of my supplies for redwork was left behind (by mistake) on my Christmas trip and just got here in the mail. It was fun to get started on these redworks.
I hope I'm not breaking any rules here but I don't see any reason why I should need to designate group 1 and group 2, in this case. If anyone wants a particular redwork that I'm working on just now, I suppose they should just say which one they want (no matter which group) and it'll be first come, first serve. There will be 6 of each chair, 6 rabbits, and 6 feathers.

We made a last minute stop at an estate sale (which are so rare around here!) and nothing was really left, but this beauty was hiding behind some jewelry boxes. I clutched it and asked how much and when the lady said $5.00, my boyfriend was already reaching for his wallet, and then the lady sdaid, "But I'll take $4.00." Sounds good!
This is marked #775-B (9 cups).
I paid: $4.00.
We scavenged some cornstalks that the Park District was taking down, they made for a great entryway.
Cave of the Demon construction -- October 2014
So I decided to get more interesting motives. One way would be taking portraits of strangers. This is my first time actively asking somebody for permission to take their picture.
I spent the whole day looking for interesting people, wondering how I was going to approach them. This needed to be different to the secretive shot-in-a-crowd picture. I know that I'm only good with people I know, somehow it helps find the right moment.
So not only did I want their permission, I also needed to find out something about them beforehand.
The picture didn't work out quite that way; I took an easy route. Anna sells newspapers, and she was the only friendly person in the subway station. After passing her, I turned around, bought a paper. I told her of my dilemma, that I had been worrying about failing on the first day of my own assignment.
I guess buying the newspaper wasn't really cheating, as it helped me talk to her, but it definitely was an excuse.
The shot took only a minute, I was too nervous talking to a complete stranger, so finding a good light and neutral background didn't allow much waiting for a more personal expression.
On the other hand, the portrait captures what made me stop and walk back in the first place, an earnest smile. Thank you, Anna.
And I claim no credit. My wife made these, having seen similar displayed in a country restaurant. I provided the music from a collection of old and damaged campmeeting songbooks.
This took me the whole two hours of a class to complete and all I can say is "OUCH!" Did I have a sore bottom when finished!
My engagement ring and my wedding ring on top of it.
Some of you know the story of my elephant ring. When I first saw the ring and chose it, I didn't realize the pattern was actually four elephants. When I figured them out I started to think they represent our family - even though our family was just the two of us and at that point I thought we were not going to have kids.
Now, five years later, we have a family of four and I feel complete.
Life's pretty amazing. Sometimes I think it really does its best to tell us things we don't see ourselves.
Some cultures share a belief that elephants are lucky creatures.
