Took a free class on Craftsy and learned how to make a bucket bag. It has unlimited potential for my business. I used painted on a pfd fabric today and will use it as the pocket part of a new bag. I will be buying some water resistant fabric to make beach bucket bags. Oh the excitement of the ideas running about in my head. Wish I could clone myself - the clone could do the housework and I could do the business. The bag below is red cotton duck and a cotton oriental print. The lining is the oriental print and the outside is pockets.
Speaking of housework - getting everything done this week to clear my plate for painting 'My Secret Garden" mural next week. It will be in our double stair well and done with concrete stain and acrylic paint. The sides will be trees and flowers, the steps will be a water fall with stones, and the bottom will be a pool with Koi. Should be interesting. Worse case scenario is I repaint the whole thing over.
Learning new free motion quilt techniques from Angela Walters and Leah Day. Not from the ladies in person, I could only wish, but by following their blogs and taking class on Craftsy. So young, so talented - great work ladies. If you would like to check them out here is their web sites. http://www.quiltingismytherapy.com/my-blog/
