LEARNING NEW THINGS . . .
Like how to make fresh pasta! Several years ago a very special person gifted me with this pasta machine and I have never used it. Today was the day!
Here are fettuccine noodles drying,and here, served with a fabulous sauce made with fresh tomatoes, peppers, onions and toasted walnuts. A slice of toasted homemade bread completed the dish.

A JACKET FOR MY SKETCH BOOK . . .
I was looking for a short but satisfying project to occupy my time while the serger is in the shop for reconditioning. I decided to make a soft cover for my sketch book! I started by stitching fabric scraps to a piece of felt, just adding elements until I liked the look. In the center I added a piece of fabric with a lion head on it, putting additional polyfil under it for dimension. This is the inside of the front cover showing the large sleeve that holds it all nice and tight. The inside of the back is similar. Here is a close up of the front, showing some stitching and some beading, the best part of any project! You can click on the photograph for a closer view.
