Getting ready.

Good grief.  I leave for Kansas City (for the Machine Quilters Showcase) on Tuesday and here it is Friday and I am SO not ready.  Books to make.   Clothes to pack.  A myriad of other things to do.  And here I sit reading blogs, checking up on the forum, talking to my blog readers and generally not getting anything done I’m supposed to.

Thankfully, since I just taught my machine quilting classes in April in New Hampshire, I pretty much know what I’m doing in classes (but I need to print handouts, so that’d better go on the list…).

What I really ought to be doing is going over to Mom’s and setting up her new computer.  We bought it for her at Sam’s Club last night, and I’d be in pretty big trouble if I didn’t make it over there to set it up like I promised.

Oh and finishing that embroidered quilt that I mentioned in my previous post.  I started trimming it, but then I thought of something else that I wanted to look at on the Internet.  And here I sit.

I’m going now.

Really.

Watch me.

I’m walking away.

Any minute now.

    LOL…. that is so me…. right now. I should be getting up and ironing a shirt for work tonight. I’m so not motivated… so I’m reading your blog instead. :c) Maybe my apathy has something to do with the boys being in LAST PLACE, not just the National League but all of Baseball. I wonder if anyone will come to watch the game tonight. Have fun at MQS. Wish I could be there.

    Yes, she would have been in a peck of trouble if she hadn’t set up my new pc for me. Huge 22″ monitor. Speed. Smaller spaces for my big fingers on the keyboard? Loving it so far. What a good daughter. I am so thankful I have children who are technical whizzes. Or maybe all children are.

Instagram post 2195281820554277242_15732201 White on white. I did some journaling with a clear Glaze pen on the predecorated page. The words are modeling paste through a stencil. My intention was to do some more layering after it was dry, but I kinda like it like this, so I’m going to leave it for now! #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal #thelayeredpage #suzannegetsmessy #getmessyartjournal
Instagram post 2195188434409354745_15732201 On my walk, I picked up some things to use for mark making. I liked the line quality of the big fat stock the best. The cornstalk worked pretty well to spread some gesso around. The ok scone wasn’t super successful, it’s too closed up for defined marks, I think. Words are from a Jane Davenport sticker set. #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal #suzannegetmessy #getmessyartjournal #thelayeredpage
Instagram post 2195138742887561650_15732201 Katie and I bundled up and took a walk around the yard the other day, at @kasiaavery’s instruction. Well, I bundled. Chilly, but pretty out and I kept moving. Swipe for the photo I snapped of her and my house in the afternoon light. #kasiasadventcalendar #suzannesadventjournal #thelayeredpage #suzannegetsmessy #getmessyartjournal
Instagram post 2194629814697133317_15732201 “If you can’t be a good example you’ll have to serve as a horrible warning.” I am working on a top secret quilting project and everything that could go wrong with a portion of it...did. Including fusible web stuck to my iron. 🙄 I finally stopped being a moron, though, and have moved on to the next stage of the process. #carvedecember #carvedecember2019 #thepainteddiaries #suzanne_365
Instagram post 2193757339083959309_15732201 342/365 I can only dream. I have saved a ton of ideas that I’ve seen for #carvedecember. This is inspired by @artistrutharmitage. Super easy carve, but I think I will get a ton of use out of this for texture in layering!! (The theme for #thePaintedDiaries is “found words” — don’t worry, though. I can do more than just dream, I can do the work to make dreams come true going to just dream...) #suzanne_365 #yaylevelup #getmessyartjournal #suzannegetsmessy
Instagram post 2193728802121713135_15732201 341/365 How we holiday. {for the last few years we have been taking the family in a ski trip, rather than buying a bunch of gifts. We haven’t put up a tree since Hobbes joined our family. I miss it, but...I also don’t miss it?} How do you holiday? #carvedecember #thepainteddiaries #suzanne_365
