Here's the almost finished lord a leaping - I'm missing the thread color for some of the outlining. Guess I'm going to Hobby Lobby tomorrow! YAY!

This other picture is of a project I'm doing for PTA. If you can guess what it is, great. If not, well, you'll find out what it is later this week as I have to have the project finished by Saturday for the carnival. Actually, even if I go to Hobby Lobby for thread, I need to finish this PTA project more. I will be painting for the rest of the week.

Today, my internet was out most of the afternoon. Blah. Gave me plenty of time to work on this - the 'lord a leaping'. And watch the Harry Potter marathon. I'm so productive when my back is out!

This turtle dove is the project I did today. Yeah, I said I was going to paint, but my back had other plans. I also did the finishing touches on the partridge today, I finished most of it over a month ago. I did wash the teddy bear from yesterday, it will get framed this weekend, I promise.

It's all done! I purposely hid the name and birthdate, just in case the mom this is intended for actually reads this. Then again, I think I'm talking to myself out here in cyber-space, so why did I bother? Who knows. Tomorrow: painting! And framing this. Over the weekend: Sewing the baby blanket to go with this. And mending the comforter on my bed. Hey, if I have to get out the sewing machine, I'm at least going to make it worthwhile!

I didn't get any work done on any projects. It's been one of *those* days. I'm just going to go to bed and try again tomorrow!

Unless I think of something brilliant to post, I'm going to start uploading pics of my works in progress. This is for a friend who had a new baby recently. I worked on it a couple hours last night, and a couple hours tonight. It's coming along quite well and should be done tomorrow for framing on Thursday.

Random Vanity Plate of the Day (or RVPOTD)

RVPOTD is a feature I've been wanting to start for a while now. There are SO MANY vanity plates here, and I rarely see the same one over and over - so many visitors, so many fun things to see and laugh at!

So, for your bemusement:

I'll let you decipher them. ;)
