Today my design wall is a hodge podge of stuff. The sparkly chickens are still there, the couple of blocks that I started for my piecing club and those painted fish occupy the lower portions. Off to the right is an unfinished piece inspired by my cyber-friend Judi at Approachable Art. It includes regular hand-dyes (by me) and some of my snow-dyes. As I sew the strips together, I have been adding more strips. They're quite narrow -- one to two inches wide, so they finish out at 1/2 to 1 inch. I like the edges staggered, so I'm going to have to figure out how to finish them without losing that effect.

Looks better than my wall. I don't have anything up, not really true, just too lazy to take a picture. I am busy getting those CQ's done. Hoping to have them done today and out the door tomorrow!
I just finished shoveling the drive and walk. Where is a DH when you need one?
I just ventured over the Approachable Art which took me to Approachable Photos... may have to steal the idea of a blog just for nature photos... naw I'll keep them where I can see them.

Love the chickens. Make me think of a great quilter that also loved chickens. Had loads of chicken stories to go with her chicken quilts. She passed away a few years ago from a motorcycle accident. Thanks for reminding me of her. You brought a smile to my face!
I, too, love the chickens! so fun :)
Those chickens are adorable!!
Lot of cool stuff on your wall. Love the chickens and the colors of your star blocks.
I like those bright strips on the right- and you dyed them yourself?? Impressive.
