OOO! OOOO! OOOO! (jumping up and down) It could be me!!

I got everything for my SP except for some items to make this weekend. I hope I got stuff that she wants. Will be mailing the package early next week. I will just say that my SP lives north of me and it would take me a little over 13 hours to drive it.

Yeah it is hard to get a 1970 Challenger in a box. *ahem* :cool:

Oh and to my SP, a hint finally for you would be: You like Cat Things. (which could be half the people here, but don't tell anyone)

Hope it's for me! Love it! What's the pattern?

Not seen any clues that might be for me. Posted mine yesterday, so should be there this time next week.

A friend and I went to see Gail today and she is in higher spirits and is going to try and post on here tonight from her Kindle, she had some therapy tonight and is feeling much better about it... We took her her dinner from our favorite place...

SP you post I do believe everyday on the board and sometimes more then once... Your picture is in your Avatar...

God Bless

Zentangle booklets today! This made me very happy. Will upload pictures later. JUST WHAT I NEEDED!

Unfortunately as a kid we were not allowed to doodle, draw and such. You'd have to understand being raised during the great depression or right after the great depression. It was considered a waste of good paper, pencils and crayons to do such. Also being from a poor state where everyone was getting government subsidized surplus food and no money coming in what little materials we had we used for things better than doodling.

I have quite an imagination and am very creative but never learned the basics to move forward in any art form so what I do create is in my mind. Fortunately though being in the 21st century and all the technology I'm able to put down what I see in my mind.

My 10 year old granddaughter is extremely creative and has been helping me learn to doodle and thangles and some zen work. She is very sweet and patient with me. I tell her what I see in my mind and she draws it and teaches me step by step what she did to create what I see.

Fortunately for me I can take programs like EQ7, Electric Quilt, and using the tools in that program create very intricate quilt designs but having problems putting it down on paper with pencils. I am getting better at it though using paper. I designed this quilt recently for a lady using EQ7 which has alot of movement in it. Without that program I would not have been able to design it and create the 3D movement of the design. I think it is important for me to learn the basics of art and incorporate it in programs like this.

I'm very interested in zentangles on fiber for quilting and these books will teach me the basics and have me use my brain more than depending on some software program.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Love, love, love it.

I thought this might be me but I live 2326.14 miles and 35 hours away.

I usually don't care for table runners/toppers, but this one is beautiful.

That must be me!!!

Or Fayzer!
