the top 2x4s all got measured and cut and put in
today we'll get all the bottom ones in, and maybe some slats up --
since I've still got some pieces coming for the necklace I've been working on, I decided that I would start a new bracelet
this is Tribute to Gees Bend Quilters #3 -- this one is being made with some more of the beads my mother gave me -- and I'm doing this a bit narrower than the last two were
I'm trying a new thing with this one -- trying to replicate the look of different fabrics with the beads -- like the yellow and white "gingham" there on the bottom right corner -- pretty cool!
in the last couple of days I actually started working on the frame -- used the Copic markers to carry the color of the beading out over the surface of the frame
I really like the way this came out, and it was pretty easy
the sable/natural/navy color mix looks nice
I'll be making some more of these
today's plans include laundry, more fencing, a trip to the grocery store and then hopefully some work at the sewing machine
time to get to it
