Tellulahville: May 2015
http://twopoundtomato.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 23, 2015. Bundles of treasure are still h iding out in various locations around my yard, but being an impatient sort, I had to rush-process one to satisfy my curiosity. This bundle was an embroidered, square linen tablecloth that I snagged at my favorite thrift store for a whopping 99 cents. The rust was obviously from metal.wire and safety pins.but the black and green marks were made with red onion skins reacting to vinegar. You just never know what you'll discover inside. Now, for the art.

Tellulahville: February 2015

Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Funny kids.and latest art. Kids are funny. And maybe every mom feels the same way, but mine are very funny. Lately, I've been feeling like my main purpose in life is to load and unload the dishwasher. It wasn't so long ago that I didn't HAVE a dishwasher, so I'm grateful to have one.and I'd get my kids to do it but I'm quite particular about where things go! During prayers a few nights back, Miso says. "Thank you Jesus for all the blooming opossums". But the funniest one lat...

Sunday, October 19, 2014. An Artsy Pumpkin Oddity. Please excuse the poorly lit photos and plush, baby blue blanket background fabric! It was late, our house is dimly lit and I just wanted to fire off some pictures before it went to it's final destination, Scooters Coffee House. My sister-in-law and I came up with this design for a pumpkin decorating contest. We couldn't cut into the pumpkin because it will remain on display for a few weeks and they didn't want it to rot. It took two evenings to complete...

Tellulahville: June 2015
http://twopoundtomato.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2015. Walnut Ink.and erosion bundle extracted. Walnut Ink. So expensive at the art store, and so easy to make. These walnuts have been sitting in a bucket on my back porch since last year. They were moldy but that was no match for boiling water. There was no complicated recipe or precise directions, I just boiled them like taters! And then there's THIS. It took me a while to dig it up, and when I found it I didn't even recognize it.my compost bundle! Poor centipedes will have to relocate.

Monday, April 13, 2015. If you've ever read "Home for a Bunny" you know that the story starts."Spring, spring, spring! Birds and flowers are bursting out, the frost is gone and here comes the rain. Soon we'll be mowing grass and swatting at mosquitoes but before that time comes.there's gardening to be done. I've started broccoli, which I've never grown before. I've got enough cucumber plants to produce sour dills for the whole block! This cardinal nest came from our 5' tall pine tree.the bird placed ...

Wednesday, April 22, 2015. Last night, I couldn't sleep.so I sat down and stitched up a little (a wee 3" tall) journal cover. It looks like it could double as a rosary pouch as well. More rusted goodness handstitched. This is the journal cover open.now to decide on the pages.and what will it be? Another project I've started is a black and white journal to collect all my scrappy bits. I'm an awkward collager, maybe because I'm particular.it takes me a long time to be pleased with a layout. What started ou...
