A Colorful Post

Boy is a little smug (again) and has every right to be, in his mother's humble opinion.  I gave him a project and boy, did Boy tackle it....

I am so proud.  He even read the directions.

Success!!!!!

Yesterday I had a blast at my creativity class.

Happy Strawberry creating a.....masterpiece????

 I've got the creativity bug real bad, Grainiacs.  Yesterday the family went to Wal-Mart for a few items.  I was looking for a non-metal thimble.  Hubby remarked to Boy:  Only your momma would go in for a thimble and come out with a ......

 Sewing Machine!!!!!  Look at all the different stitches I can make.  Remember that straightened house I was talking about.  Well now I have machines and fabric and all sorts of wonderful supplies all over the kitchen!

Last night while re-piecing my project, I pulled out the iron.  Yes, it is truly I, Strawberry, typing.  I needed to iron out some creases in the fabric and well, Ollie knows how much I despise ironing.  He wanted to help.

Who wants to iron when you can rub my belly?

Kitzilla wanted to be helpful too.

What's that rooster looking at?

Today is homework day.  If I can keep the cat off the fabric and the other cat off the ironing board, I get to baste all those colorful pieces of fabric together!  Whoo hoo.  My rooster is asking "And where did you get your inspiration for this masterpiece????"  I confess: I LOVE color!!! (and exclamation marks).

Hey!  Where have I seen those colors before?

Can we say Mexican train wreck?

Last night I took this train wreck apart and repositioned the pieces.  I'm hoping it will look pretty.  Tomorrow will tell.  Keep your fingers crossed!
