10Feb
Because of my surgery, which so rudely interrupted my fun time, I was not able to complete my bead soup piece. I even went so far to dream last night that I was going to cut class in order to get it finished in time (keeping in mind that there has been no class to cut since ’99). I’ve been working out what I want to do in my sketchbook but haven’t had the stamina go actually go dig up some tools and such. Since I’m feeling much better today I’m hoping to have it ready by the weekend.
In the meantime, be sure to visit the other participants and check out what they made with their goodies. I’ve already visited a handful of them and let me tell you, it was worth the wait:
