Sorry, my count was wrong, it's 137 things made and posted.


This is the 134th thing I made and posted since last September. This bag will get a very cool shell button.

I went down and got my silk collection, so this is silk sunflower 3, for Saturday.
I grouted 3 mosaics today. Must need new grout, it looks a bit rough. Or maybe a new grouter!







The second silk sunflower. This is for Friday.


This is the first silk sunflower. I made it late last night, and just quilted it.

Another sunflower, can't seem to stop. I'd like to do one every day. This one has iridescent leaves, really like them. I was too tired to stand and do mosaics anymore tonight.


A new mosaic, not grouted. I just finished it. My friend Deb suggested a preying mantis, so I tried. It's 4+3/4" by 11". I like doing small ones.

Another sunflower. Can't seem to stop. I wonder if I'll make 100? This has purple sparkles.

A trial piece. I used black netting on it, and it was too dark when quilted. So I burned some of the netting off the petals, and I like it more.


This sunflower also needs the edges done. I may also tweak the center with a bit of dark color.


This sunflower still needs the edges finished. It's 12" square.

This sunflower is 12" square. It's here because I couldn't stop having fun.


This is a 12" block for the Breaking Traditions exhibit. It's theme is the Two Twelve art Centers' energizing effect on our community of artists.


This is a 6" leaf block, for the Running with Scissors group.


This is a page for a fabric book, outer space theme, for Megan. It's about 5" by 7".
