What a JOY

I've had my daughter and my Grandson up for a visit and it has been such a joy. He had to do some cooking to earn his cooking badge in scouts, so he made chili with Grandpa and a breakfast casserole with me. We also made some cookies which were gone in a flash LOL
I have been having a real good time with these mica samples...I can't even begin to tell you how my mind has been working. As the stuff is finished , I will post for some feed back. They are really quite fun and the people at Wilsonart are just fabulous. I can't say enough good about the company who makes such an effort to recycle things rather then trash them, plus a staff that is so willing and eager to help. You don't get that too often and think it is something to crow about.
I have a unicorn almost completed (pattern by Frowning Francis) but I've changed it a bit. There are some fabulous patterns out there (even though I like drawing my own) love using them, but I still want that OOAK  look...I'm very happy with what I've done thus far and hope to have him done real soon.
There is also a purse almost done...I real  fun one with many pockets.
Gourds are almost read to be reborn...I've got a penguin in mind for my DDIL and a doll for someone special on my Christmas list. I also have some glass blocks (more trash to treasure) that I'm hoping to paint up within the next week or two...So there is lots to look forward to for ME and for you...so please keep visiting......
