I love how our lives are woven together.
.

inspired by a bird...

It all started when I was having lunch. It was a sunny day.
 A bird sang the most beautiful song.
Then later that day I was cleaning out a closet and I found a gift bag with a bird on it
Well it didn't take long for this to happen 


  I really should be working on a journal quilt for a swap.
But you know how it is when an idea strikes.
So this is my workspace today.
 I'm cutting up paper and layering and painting and layering
I have no idea where I'm going with it
but I'll let you know when we get there.

This is my second week linking up to Julia and WOYWW and as many of you had said
It is a bit addicting. I had so much fun looking at everyones work spaces. I am still trying to leave comments on all the blogs....but ....well....a girls gotta eat.
I am also linking up to Good Life Wednesday
because being able to crate a collage while on vacation = a good life


now off you go to peek in on all the other bloggers who linked up this week

Sorry I missed you on your first ever WOYWW last week. I'm SO glad I came today, though. It looks like we have much in common and I hope to get back to your blog soon because you make my kind of art. And you sew. I see an instant friendship soon! Happy WOYWW from #10.

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

OK Marianne. I am so asleep. I knew I loved your art for a reason, and I'm feeling very sheepish and ashamed I didn't even recognize your name OR your blog when I came by. Please forgive me. I'm sleep deprived and should probably sign off my computer.
