Tile numero uno of puzzle

Here's tile number 1 of the new puzzle tiles. I don't know which direction this one goes. And...I'm not going to look. it'll be fun to try and put it together.

Last week's work

I really did work last week, but it was my nephew's wedding Illumination I worked on. It's big (15" x 24") on maroon lodka paper. It didn't photograph well, but here it is.

This week I've started on a 9 piece puzzle. I am taking 9 tiles and have done a string on the 'whole' piece. 3 x 3 tiles. Now, I'm starting to tangle each tile. I've done one, but I kept the pieces together with painters tape so the tangles carried over to the next tile. This time, I'm not carrying over the tangles. We'll see how it turns out.

Rain, Rain, please come our way

It's hot, it's steamy, here's some rain, now we just need some of the real stuff. Didn't know so many things could be varied on some lines and zigzags.

Monday's poke root and poke leaf and the nine combined

Finally, one I really like. This is Poke Leaf (the leafy one) and poke root (not sure where the root is, looks like cherries to me)

Pulled out all of them I've done (not including the double practice ones) and laid them out to see what the 'nine' would look like.

Tuesday trying to work?!

So Red decides she needs a little attention (after being shut in the closet most of yesterday...not on purpose, but because she climbs up and hides on top of something, I don't see her and close the door to get the light off). Now, she's 'helping', right on top of a large 'learning' piece so I'm finishing up a 'betweed' experiment on the side. She hates the camera but hasn't yet figured out the doc camera.

Saturday Striping before graduation

 

Hadn't meant to do a bee for striping but here it is. After I did this one, and I'm supposed to be experimenting, I decided to do another striping. Just to play with the twists and turns, shadows and highlights. So a Saturday a Striping I went:)
