hotel crafting

the truth is


that over the last two nights hotel crafting into the midnight hours has been necessary


Last night the sewing machine had to come back to the hotel with me,
because of the multi layered way that I work


and the time that it takes to get to a point to where a details photo can be taken ...


and the fact that there is only 8 hours in a work day and sometimes over time is necessary.
but I am happy to report that I am all ready for my last day at the F&W studio! with just three projects left to complete!


Now if you miss seeing new work from me, but enjoyed the photos that I have shared on this post they why not order my new DVD.

After buying and savoring every moment of Soulful doors, I am compelled to have the next one. What amazed me most was how you can teach such an intricacy done piece so easily, and how easy ti was indeed. The reason I bought your dvd, was because the soulful door looked impossible to make. Usually I ca see something and work out how it was done.. but the soulful doors eluded me. I HAD to buy the dvd, after missing out in your class at Artfest.
