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.

Valentine door hanging complete with candy and flowers. The flowers are yellow satin yo-yos with silver buttons in the center. The candy is inserted in small pockets. The candy is optional.

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.

Another art show success.  I sold a number of Christmas cards that were prints of the Christmas door hangings and one of the hangings.

More Christmas door hangings

I haven’t posted for awhile because I have been in a creative mood.  Here are some of the finished projects.  The Yule Logging Company, The Mistletoe Shoes, Stable’s Animal Care Center, and Sugar Plum Dance Studio.

But wait, there’s more……… Snowflakes Cereal Manufacturing Company, 3 Wise Guys Pawn Shop, and Elves’ Toy Store

 

I’m going to have to stop making these, now, even though I have many more ideas.  I need to finish the candy and cookie baking.
