After a very busy semester, I’m hoping that I can actually get back to some scrapping, crafting, and memory-keeping. But first, I have to tackle ... the pit. The pit is of course my little, tiny corner of the world where I try to create. And right now, it is a pit. It’s supposed to be my “secret haven,” or at least that’s what my framed primitive embroidery art calls it... I can't bring myself to put the frame on the wall until it feels more like that. It’s not much of a haven right now. Perhaps a hovel?

Took two great classes yesterday from Wendy Vecchi at my LSS, and I do mean great classes. Wendy just got back from Ranger U. Need I say more? Check out her amazing blog here.

Hoping to take a class from Linda Cain at the same LSS. A great framed piece of collage art. So I hope it fits into our schedule! Check out Linda’s equally amazing blog here.

Just having a few hours to sit and play yesterday made me feel like tackling the pit. So that's where I am today. Tackling the pit. I can't even bring myself to post pictures of it's pitlike qualities right now. When it's over, I'll post "after" pics. And then I might just have to sit and play with some distress inks and crackle paint and try out the ideas from Wendy's classes...
