Making, Crafting, Creating... aka Whatcha workin' on?

Good choice. I like the other colours, but the orange gives the dress a nice impact.

They’re okay for inner zippers, although as your wife says, not suitable for the outer zipper. So far, the weak point on my handbags has been the fabric, not the fastener. Source: myself

All done!

It looks weird on the top because I have wider shoulders than my dress form does. Also I need to re-pad the dress form as it’s not quite accurate to my measurements. It fits perfectly on me, no armpit-gapping.

I don’t hold myself out as any sort of professional photographer. There’s some deep and painful stories there.

But darned if I don’t on occasion get some good framing.

I call it

That’s a great shot. Love the lighting paterns on the road there. Nice one!

I bought a thing at the Prime Day sale. I haven’t used one of these since college and frankly I find them a little scary.

Also I’m laughing at how long it’s been since they updated this model, which comes with “instructional CDs” for “Windows 95 or later”. I don’t think I’m gonna be using those.

Was there a thick layer of dust on the top of the box? :wink:

Just made a friend her own BB unit (her fav colour is green) and a Jedi variant of QT-KT - which still needs weathering - but the BB unit has seen a few miles :+1:

Did you go to one of those places where you and your friends drink wine and paint, or did you do it at home?

Already out of likes this morning due to a rash of liking last night (and I wasn’t drinking). So here you go :love_letter: (@nemomen’s suggestion)!

But wow, very beautiful!!! It looks amazing! Maybe I should try drinking while painting because I suck at anything that involves paint or pencils. (I’m having a kindergarten flasback, but in this one I’m informing my teacher Mrs. Scott that the Van Gogh in me needs some red wine for creativity time.:relaxed:)

I went to a place. I do not have the talent for painting without someone giving me directions to follow. I like this one because “impressionistic slaps of paint” is really my style.

Thanks!

Beautiful. So impressionistic!

Neat! There’s one of those places not too far from me, and I was wondering if it might be a fun thing to do…

It really is quite a fetching painting.

Do you get to chose how many slaps of paint you can use, or does the instructor place a limit on your style?
