To-Do Tuesday #68

 

 To-Do Tuesday #68 


Goals from this past week 
  • I will do something creative every day to post to IG and also to my FB creative happenings workshop group.✅
  • Finish fabric collage on book page hand stitching✅
  • Work on a sewing project✅
  • List on my blog the you Tube channels subscriptions since the last time I gave a list✅

I have posted every day following the challenge by Joanne Sharpe online class to make some kind of creative play artwork every day.  I am posting to my carylquilts IG with  #mojowithjojo.  

I am only showing 2 of the projects in this blog post that I posted on IG and in my FB group.  I could post to my FB cinnamon holiday workshop blog group also (in addition to the FB creative happenings workshop group) if anyone is interested.

I made a Halloween mug rug/placemat measuring 14½ x 9"  It was a very quick project to make.  My favorite.....making small improv quilt projects.  Here are photos front and back



I finished the fabric collage from last week....hand stitching and then glued it to a 4x6 index card with FabriTac and then trimmed.  Here is the finish


Some of the YOU-TUBE channels I have discovered since my first list on April 13, 2021:

Paper Terrace

Wendy's Journal Adventure

joie de fi

Amber K Creative

49 dragonflies:

There are a lot of quilting channels that I have followed for years and I have not listed any of them on my blog in a list.  Most everyone has already heard of them.  I do refer to them at times and try to remember to add the label on my blog.

AND here are some goals for next week:

  • something creative every day to post to IG and also to my FB creative happenings workshop group
  • make a fall mini quilt to hang on my vintage wall shelf

Tuesday To Do #56

 This is Tiuesday To Do #56 I will be linking with Chris Knits

Herer is my progress from last week:

To-Do Tuesday week of April 6 through April 12:

  1. Finish the quilting on my log cabin runner X
  2. Work on at least one sewing/quilting project every day ✅
  3. Watercolor painting on papers and/or fabric every day ✅
 I didn't finish quilting the log cabin runner...but almost done.  Last month I added a section in the middle of the runner with a ruler quilting and I need to practice on something else before I attempt to finish that area!!  

I took a photo with several of the projects I have done this week.  On the left are some watercolor papers for Joanne Sharpe online class.  The right has some strips of crumb sewing after watching Craftsy Christina Cameli.  AND the center top is my creative journal open to the page I am working on.  



The watercolor papers are done using different techniques and Daniel Smith paints.  The journal has distress oxide to the background.  I put a triple pocket for journal cards and the top pocket has a fabric tag.  I was inspired to do these after watching You-Tube videos.

Almost every single day I watch videos about lots of creative crafting..sewing...fun!!  I discovered two more very interesting ones this past week and subscribed!!  I am going to list some channels.  I think there must be millions and millions of very interesting people that just want to show us how to do things!  It is awesome AND
the reason I think I am rather obsessed with watching and learning new things is this:
WHEN I first started watching craft programs on TV back in the 70s....THERE WAS ONLY ONE SHOW on TV that I watched and it was on ONCE A WEEK!!!

The Paper Outpost  (4/9/21)

my sewing room (12/23/20)

There are a lot of other You-Tube channels that I also follow and subscribe...those on the list are my newest ones.
