I've actually now finished knitting the sleeves. Maggie by Kim Hargreaves, from rowan 29, knit in double-stranded Phildar Aurore.
I'm steadily adding more buildings, but not sure how to make green areas in the city. Pieces of photos with green parts are in here (especially in the point of land where the canal joins the river), but they look too much like the buildings.
Close up of the first visible mistake. I tried to knit w/o looking and managed to add a stich. Rather than ripping back I knitted a couple stitches together a few rows later (when I noticed the error). Later I will darn the hole closed and it shouldn't really be noticeable (which is why I didn't rip).
The quiver starts to take some shape. still is posterboard and duct tape. Do NOT underestimate the many wonderful uses of duct tape.
This is a picture of a cow with a fork through it (the fork comes through to the bottom of the cow). Each section of has the negative impacts written on it instead of neck, shoulder, liver, etc) The cow would be black, and the background would be yellow. It will have a hashtag to tie into my "free range" social media campaign.
I am making a color wheel quilt with a school aged friend whose dog died recently. Some of the fabric bits are from the dogs bed, bandannas etc. The rest is from my "collection" of fabric.
Process so far:
-She brought me the fabric bits from the dog.
-I filled in the selection with a bunch of my prints.
-She took all the fabric home and cut rectangles.
-She decided on the layout which is pictured. (Didn't she do great?!)
-We will probably add a few more blues and subtract some reds, then I will cut the pieces.
-She will help with the piecing a bit.
-The rest tbd....
So fun to have a partner!
Aprovechando los restos de las transferencias, y de pequeños trozos de colores, he hecho estos circulos, que se convertirán posiblemente en la pieza central de cabochones y cuentas.

This is for a piece I'm working on where I'm putting a woodcut block on top of a pulp painting. This is the first board. I'll be doing another board in a bit. The wood is lauan, my second board will be birch. This I just polyurethaned and it's drying on my steps. Sorry for a not so good photo.
I bought the stretchers at Rockler's with a 25%-off coupon, the legs I got from Rockler's clearance section at half price, the base is two salvaged 3/8" plywood sheets, stacked, the long side is a sheet of salvaged MDF, and the short sides are birch plywood bought at Rockler's.
standing behind the partial art nook wall, the dark doorway is the bathroom, with a new, compact shower. We'll actually have room for a bit of storage next to the sink there. Going to cover this area with curtains.
The green is going to look great in there, but the grey might be too dark.
AND WHY HAVE I NOT RECEIVED MY SPUTNIK LAMP YET. 3+ weeks? Welcome to bad eBay-feedbackville, sweetheart!
two of the four persimmons started to rot, but these two are okay. so no, we don't really have rotting fruit hanging up in our doorway.
Sweater in progress, it will have a large floppy cowl neck and 3/4 length sleeves and will not be crop top like it is currently. Also, the ball of yarn is gigantic. This is not a baby sweater, but an adult size small sweater.
