Busy Sunday Cleaning Up Studio; Traveling Sketchbook Page Made

I completed Katie Janes' Last Page for her ArtySoulSister's Traveling Sketchbook, which I'll mail to her tomorrow. Go there to see more wonderful art from nine artists who are participating. I used the new nature stamps, as her theme is nature...and continued more of the leaves I quilted yesterday for my larger piece.
Sewed them down to card stock and wha-la it was done!
Last photo is the back of the page.
Her book is 5" X 7" and she will bind it when it
returns to her.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& then she cleaned up! I love calling my family room mess my studio. It sounds so...well artzy! LOL I have this new huge project upon me, must get started...the commissoned art quilt wall hanging from a lovely woman from New York. I will refer to it as the NY Project for now. So I needed to finish up a traveling sketchbook page (which I did); and then CLEAN/SORT/THROW AWAY/PUT AWAY STUFF that covered three surfaces: design table (another artzy term); sewing machine table; and card table! It is down to a low roar! Not what anyone could term really neat or clean, but way tidier than it was. A good start. Let the wild rumpus begin!
**************
I hope to get Henry V into the vets Monday morning with a desperate call.
He has tried to eat several times today, again, but each time he takes a few timid bites
and immediately barfs them up again. Not good, not good.
I need my kitty well.

  2. Lovely page! The new project sounds fascinating. Textile/fabric art has always bee so interesting to me. Especially since it isn't something I have ever attempted. I just love it so!

    Prayers and hugs for Henry V...hope it's a very quick healing process for him. I can only imagine how worried you must be.

    Hugs!

  5. Beautiful page!
    As for Henry, pay close attention to what he does in the catbox, I just went through this, so I sort of know what to look for. Is he drinking a lot of water? Good luck at the vet's! xoxo

  9. As I said on the other blog, wonderful pages! Love love love them!

    Oy, henry! Bloodwork will show any brewing issues. I'm here if you need me. If I toot my horn about anything it's my veterinary knowledge ;)

    He's not likely to eat any threads/needles lying around is he? Thread won't show in an xray.
    Usually older cats don't bother with that stuff.

    Fingers crossed it's as simple as a huge furball! Kitty prayers are are their way.

    Hugs to you both!
