Zorro Masks and Mermaid Shenanigans

I know that some dollies march to the beat of a different drum, but I'm pretty sure this one doesn't march at all. Who knows where she came up with this get-up. She insisted upon that silly Zorro-esque mask, and polka dots. Sometimes I'm just not in charge. This simple angel was much more accommodating (as angels tend to be), but she changed her belt seven times. *sigh* I think I'm on a bit of a mermaid kick. There are two more in the works this week, one of which is a bit of a handful (you'll see). I'm pretty sure he has some sort of Napoleon complex. Not so for this sweet babe though. She's super snugly (for a fish).

  8. Hi Jo! I tried your "cheater quilt" technique and love it! I have always wanted to try painting/wax resist on silk, but have been too afraid to play with the slippery stuff. This technique mimics the effect, but with the comfortable muslin staple. I used traditional quilt patterns and also tried a few snowflakes. Posted the new work on my blog today. Hope I did you proud! :)
