Well, here are the first completed UFO's in the Procrastinator's Challenge. Cathy, http://www.tolentreasures.blogspot.com/ has painted the blue barrel and arranged a floral spray in it for a customer. Cathy shared that she was having a hard time finishing it up because it wasn't exactly her taste. For those of us who make items for sale, we can sympathize with Cathy. I know when I have a custom basket to make, I drag my feet and wait 'til the spirit moves me. Sometimes I think the spirit went on vacation! The felted bags were made by Nicola from http://clasheen.wordpress.com/ Great job ladies. I will have more updates tomorrow, as I haven't included everything that has been finished in the challenge to date! Keep working on those UFO's. ~Ann

ReplyDeleteHey Ann, tell me more about that magazine -- where do you get it?
ReplyDeleteI'm having a great time coming here and seeing the progress. Love Cathy's barrel, she always does a wonderful job and the felted bags are fantastic. You guys are a great motivator for the rest of us. Patti
ReplyDeleteTJ, go to www.mercantilegatherings.com The magazine comes out 4 times per year and I think costs $21.95 per year. If you buy any past issues, get last year's Holiday issue. This issue has an article that I wrote with photos that they published! My first publication. They wanted letters from the past - I submitted a letter that my Great Grandfather wrote to his future wife's parents asking for her hand in marriage. They were married in the late 1800's so this is a very special letter! ~Ann
