OHIO STAR MINI

 Today, during the BP-Monday Sewcial get-together, I made this week's Art East Quilting Mini block, #34 - The Ohio Star II.

FUSSY SEWING

 I quilted on the City Noise quilt in the morning, then in the afternoon, I made the next Art East Quilting's Mini Charm block.  This one was all about fussing and getting all of the points and seams right.  And, it finishes at 6 inches.

This is block 31, The Meta Star:

DAY 9

Day 9 of the #30daysketchbookchallenge and today's prompt is "In the Bathroom".

My first thought was, yuck.  But, I thought the pedestal sink in the new downstairs bathroom is interesting looking.  So, I drew it.

It's so hard to paint white.  I seem to make the shading too dark.  This ended up looking more grey than white.  I even used a bit of white gouache to try to tame those greys, but alas...

I sketched it out in pencil first.

Then inked it, erased the pencil lines and added color.

Since today is Monday, I spent my afternoon with the BravePatch Monday Sewcial group.  And, it is week two of Art East Quilting's Mini Block Sampler  Here is the 6" block for this week, an Ohio Star.
