Two years waiting to be finished. What a thrill to be finished. Oct. 2010

Native Woman and card to match Nov.2,2010

Newest Gourd and card to match.  If anything sells at the show I will be able to add this to the things already there.  We can keep 10 showing so if any sell more can be added.  I went to check out how they were going to present things for the show but nothing had been started.  Seems to be a bit unorginized.  I offered to go help if they needed someone extra for putting things out.

Gads, when the wheels get going I don't know how to stop. The outside trim was harder than any of the rest to get JUST RIGHT. So much fun to find things to work with that have been hid for eons. It's like Xmas way ahead of time.

This shot of the Redding Art Show Projects is just for my records to help me remember what I took. This is my first public showing so I am very nervous. No time now to set up a good background for a good picture but it will do for this time as a memory.

WOW, I forgot how much fun it is to see a project come to a final point. I had started this a LONG time ago but never could think of anything to make it feel finished. I added a leather trim on the top and then braded the light colored straw to run underneath the leather. Now I feel it is finished.

A couple of years ago I had started this when the group was playing with fish things. Due to some not planned things coming into my life it was put on the side after getting cut and an idea in my head to finish it. It has been sitting on a table on my porch every sense. It has made my day to be able to finish and get the final picture. Not only does it prove to myself but to my friends that when a plan is made I don't give up or loose the thoughts no matter how much time passes. I now have one less thing cluttering my poor old over crowded brain. LOL
