waiting...

for FedEx to ring my bell and deliver my Kindle Fire. I just finished the case for it about an hour ago. It measures 7" x 6".

Making black and white hexagons for my magic cloth while waiting...

the Magic Beast Cloth continues...

I've stopped trying to plan the whole cloth. Doing that just makes me put it aside and go on to something else. So I am now just adding sections that inspire me and will try to connect them all with embellishment.

 I like the idea of extending a design into another section with applique and embroidery.

I might be adding some beasts in amongst the hexagons...a kind of playground. maybe just hints of beasts as my drawing skills are not that great.

And just a reminder for those of you who observe Daylight Savings Time, set your clocks back one hour tonight.
