still here

I am still here....September 11 is still such a vivid memory that I just avoided yesterday all together. So I am still sewing and still cleaning and today I am cooking and I have been recycling......threads. You know the mess of thread you get when you wash your fabrics (above)?

Well, you can put a pile in your palm and roll it up and sew thru it until a nice firm ball appears and voila! you have beads to play with.
Have an artful weekend!
