Happy Thursday all!
A friend of mine told me a saying yesterday
You have Monday and Tuesday
and after that next 3 work days
WTF
(Wednesday, Thursday and Friday)
Cannot type what she really said,
so I hope you know what the initials also mean.
So before we started working at the new store,
I was working on my latest rug hooking.
I was perusing antique redware plates online,
and the light bulb lit up in my head.
Why not hook some redware plates?
So I drew six plates.
Made these thus far.
Not sure what this pattern is called, but loved it.
Then I hooked this lil birdie.
My third design is this heart.
Not quite finished.
Each are about 6 inches across.
They will all be backed with this fabric.
Not sure when I will be able to finish
the last three,
but when completed, all six will be part
of my Christmas 2019.
Yes I said Christmas. LOL
I am always thinking ahead.
The Urban Garage
[our new store]
is still a work in process.
Bob already sold the floor lamp he made,
the vintage furniture and a pond boat.
I told him he needs to lock the door,
so no one else will walk in while he is there.
Each day after work this week,
I stop by...we grab a bite to eat and work
another two or three hours.
Currently I have been painting tiles.
Will show pics in my next post.
Have a great day!
Redware Blessings To All!
