Digging out the clay...

I am making headway in the mess that is the spare room/studio.. And with the weather cooling I am actually looking forward to digging out some clay and sculpting! Since it has been a while I will post some pictures of previous stuff.. some of the photos are NOT that great but it will give you an idea of other stuff that I do besides the fibery goodies

hmmm nope didn't happen

that big clear out I had planned didn't happen.. friday we were on our way to my sons JV game and the right front tire went kaplooey! so had to replace both front tires since the left one was on the verge of kaplooey-ing...totally blew my weekend so now I am to lazy to do any sorting and cleaning... grrr... there went money I really didn't have..sigh.. its always the way isn't it? So next weekend I will attempt the clear out again. I just want to simplify and declutter some more. I have already gotten rid of a BUNCH of stuff but lots more to go thru!

Frustration

nothing is going right today.. I just can't seem to "get with it" ..I am in the mood for a major clear out of STUFF that seems to grow when one is not paying attention! On a crafty note.. tried my hand at Navajo plying ..using the ugly batt yarn only did a wee bit just to see if I was even remotely coordinated..it came out like a giant fat Caterpillar .. will have to post a pix of it .. got my WIP just about done that one will remain a single ply
