Step-By-Step

I like step-by-step work-in-progress pictures, don't you?

So I snapped pics of this one as I merrily rolled along.

The making of The After Party. . .

...............................................................................................................................................

 After making my drawing, I traced it onto cloth.

 Dylan made a cloth/batting sandwich and quilted it all up.

Then I commenced to painting, one color at a time.

Snip, snip, snip.

Painted the back. 

And stained it. 

 Stitched and buttoned and drew in the details.

More paint.

All done!

Sneaky-Peeks and Embracing the Wonk

I finished a few new pieces. They're kinda odd. I like them.
Today I'm gonna be working on playing with my scrappy quilt. Thanks to my buddy Dixie surprising me with a package, my fabric stash has just practically doubled! So now I can finish with the strip-cutting bit and commence to sewing. I'm realizing (too late) that I should have maybe been a little more conscious about the whole measuring thing. See those little "squares"? Yeah, they're supposed to match up at the corners. And be, you know, square. I'm not worried though, just embracing their wonkiness.
