What’s On My Design Wall

This past week I’ve spent time marking Deadline III, so there are no pictures.  However, this weekend was String Fling in Manhattan, Kansas. Over 650 5th – 9th grader  string players.  This is the 8th/9th grade orchestra that Sydney played in.

I’m not sure what I was thinking, I didn’t bring my camera, so today’s photos are off my camera.

While she was at practise, I spent the weekend trimming the rail fence blocks.

I set up a cutting station.

The bed became the design wall.  Half the blocks are trimmed.

I started reading Publish Your Patterns! by Nancy Restuccia.  The link will take you to Amazon – no affiliation.  Before Christmas I checked the book out from the library. Things were crazy and I didn’t open it until the day before I had to take it back (after the 2nd renewal!)   What I saw in those few minutes made me want to buy my own copy to read at leisure.

And I did work on one of my own projects.  I grabbed my redwork.
