WIP-TAST-ic Wednesday 51

Wednesday, December 19, 2018

Howdy hello! The end of 2018 is surely upon us and I hope all is well with you.

I don’t have any typical WIPs to show; I haven’t been crafting in the usual sense. I had to buckle down and learn Adobe’s InDesign for something, and it turns out I love it. Like, a lot. I use to fight against using it any time Boy would suggest it, but all it took was a class to teach me the steps to warm my heart. The particular classes I am in are taught by Daniel at BringYourOwnLaptop (though I am taking them through StackSkills). He is an awesome teacher, so if you’ve been interested, check out his lessons. He also taught me about Cat Ipsum, which is hilarious. Anyway, now I am itching to redesign this website again, but I am working nearly full-time these days so that might not happen any time soon.

Because I was playing around, I didn’t save any of the stuff I made, but I took a screen shot of this lovely design, at least:

So on this note, my tourguide for the Daniel Boone National Forest is now turned over to them. I may still have to do some requested tweaks, but it also may just land in their creative department’s hands to finish it off. That’s a load of my shoulders! And I also sent over the final draft about the bent pole structures I took part in last year at Living Archaeology Weekend to the Kentucky Archaeological Survey. Phew, it’s been a week.

Just a post to explain my thoughts on what I keep referencing as MIOMIO 2025, or “Move It On or Move It Out”.

Hello 2024!

For the start of 2024, I’ve been playing with drawing, paint, and watercolor pencils to get a feel for the media.

My Hexie Dreams quilt, which was carefully fussy cut and hand pieced by me, then hand quilted by my gramma, is finally finished after three+ years of work (and avoidance). The proof is in the stitching – persistence pays off!

Priscilla Edwards led a TextileArtist.org’s Stitch Club where we learned to make a wire frame and use batik wax to form a sculpture. For whatever reason, I decided I’d make a sailboat!
