Platte River State Park

I have finished the fabric and thread picture of the Platte River State Park.  This is the rocky path down to the waterfall.  The location is near Lewisville, NE.  I think it turned out nice.  Comments appreciated.

Platter River State Park

Last  summer our Plein Aire painting group went to the Platte River State Park in Louisville NE.  I painted a scene there and decided to do it inn fabric and thread.  I started it last Friday.  This is as far as I have gotten so far.

A pocket full of posies

Christmas is over, the old year is done.  The time to think about Spring has come.   I can hardly wait.  It is sooooooo cold.   New door hangings are in the process.  Here are two that I have completed.   I recycled denim jeans pockets, used scraps of cotton fabric to make the flowers and old buttons for the centers.  The large flower has a small pearl bead in the center.  I am also experimenting with different borders.
