Practical.

A few weeks ago lovely artist Nicola de Jager, she of the stunning sugar skulls, came to visit our mixed media class. She brought along squares of shwe-shwe fabric, felt and buttons for us to play with. I decided to make a pincushion with mine.
Well, I would not want you to think that I only make impractical, weird objects ...

Cute little pincushion! Lovely fabric, but what does it mean that it is shwe-shwe fabric?

I wish you had eaten some of the chocolate and other candy from my Easter egg, because I had a little to much of it... :-)

Practical and pretty! And I love your bust. You know what I mean! I liked what you said about your husband worrt=ying about remaining surface areas-Andy has to cope with that sort of thing too!

Spring is coming around slovenly here up north- take a lithe look if you have the time.
