So sorry I’ve been slacking in updating each week after my Flosstube video. It’s just a lot of extra work so I think I’m going to update every 3-4 weeks. That may be more do-able. (fingers and eyes crossed!)

Below is the latest Flosstube video:

Go HERE to watch the Flosstube videos from the past four weeks if you’d like a more thorough update.

WIPS (works in progress)

Needlework

Due to working on my Halloween Whimsy fabric line for Riley Blake Designs, I have’t had much time for stitching or punching 😞  The punching I did do was for my May pattern release.

Art

I started a new painting for Whatcha Paintin’ Wednesday. Another Mary and Jesus painting; a

3 foot round. I love how it’s progressing. I started with texturing the board with acrylic paint and a layering block.

Join me for WPW every Wednesday at 1pm eastern on Facebook or YouTube.

Whatcha Paintin Wednesday

I finished “Perfect Love”. I really enjoyed painting it during WPW. Join Kristin of Shabby Perceptions and me as we paint together and chat.

I decoupaged the leaflets handed out each week at mass to my substrate and painting over top then sanded to reveal the “hidden” words. There are also a couple of pictures of Mary hidden behind the paint (shown below).

Faith Journaling

I’m starting to paint in my journal once a week. I’m choosing topics reflecting my faith. First up is “Rest Well Loretta”.

I also recorded myself painting “Prayer”.

As you can see it’s been busy at the studio! We are also having a May pattern release…..2 punchneedle and 4 cross stitch. I’ll share that here as well so check back!

Have a great week!   -Teresa
