Finished Fiber Piece!


It is finished!!!!!!!
The fiber piece is now done, folks. And could not be happier, that stress is now gone.

The fiber show is this Sat, and I will take pictures at the show and also post those for you.
This is the Art co-op in Peninsula, Ohio http://www.peninsulaartacademy.com/ check it out.
Please let me know what you think, I love to hear from other artists.

I'm trying to figure out how to do the pictures in a different layout of my kids, so bear with me.

Keep composing that art,

Working Hard for the due date.

I am working on my fiber piece almost everyday in hopes of getting it done for the fiber show.
The one thing I don't like about due dates for projects is that they seem to get in the way of getting the piece done right. You worry about that date instead of thinking about the piece or at least I do.
I will be working on the piece and will get ready to put something on it and it will tell me to put something different on it. I will have to stop and add or take away a piece of it and change it for something else.
I hope to take a new picture this afternoon and post it later.

Spinners Hook and Spinning

One of the hardest things that I am trying to teach myself is to spin yarn.
It is not as easy as it looks, my hands don't want to do what I tell them, they have a mind of their own.
I took the time to make a spinners hook, which pulls the started thread through the orifice of the spinning wheel. Something new to think about making now.
I friend gave me bags of Alpaca fibers of all different colors and I am learning to wash, clean, and comb the fibers, it is fun!
But spinning is a different story, will keep you up to date on things.

I am still working on my fiber piece for the show coming up July - August.
Keep stitching,

Symbols Game, cont

Here is the new picture of the piece I am working on.
You may see a larger picture at the bottom of the page.
Get a piece of paper and start keeping track of the symbols.
Don't forget to email me with each symbol you see, where they are, how many.
Then email me
Your name with a list of the symbols.
Hope you have fun with this.

Symbols Game

Good Morning from Ohio
where it is a little humid and overcast.


Triquetra - Holy Trinity
This piece will have symbols within symbols.
Some will be Celtic, but it is hard to find symbols for certain words,
some words do not have symbol linked to them.

I think I will host a game with this fiber piece!
How many symbols can you find?
You will need to send me and email with your name, and what symbols you are
guessing. Please send to grandmawillcox@zoominternet.net
I will print out email and save to keep track.
I will put together a gift basket for the winner.
So please link this blog to your emails or your blog.
I will post a picture when a new step is done, I will keep a list of symbols as I go
that way I won't forget what they are.
They will be reveled at the end when the piece is done.
There is a clue in this blog.

Thanks for viewing and playing

To Much to Do

Sorry everyone!
I have not bloged in so long, Life has gotten in the way.
I have even started new projects without finishing this one first.
I do that alot, but that is how my brain works, it jumps to, too many things and
can't seem to finish the thing I start.
But I am not the only one that does this, other artist totally understand what I mean.
I hope to finish this one day.
Take Care and stay dry and warm.
