It has been a quiet day here. Mr C was not feeling well and so spent most of the day in bed.  We had to cancel our planned family time. I watched the Rose Bowl parade and did some SDA database work this morning.

This afternoon, I spent some good time in the studio. I finished tidying one side. I found the top of my cutting table and cleared the ironing table. The print table is, however, a chaotic mess. I need to find better storage for my paint supply. I found something on the IKEA website that looks promising and is not too expensive. I might have to make a trip there this week.

For my 3 X 3 piece, I did a reverse, needle turned circle applique. One of my original ideas for this project was to do a needle turned circle or two every day. I felt I would bore of it very soon. This is the first time I have ever done one of these and I think I did a pretty good job.

I received a couple of sweet gifts from my daughters for Christmas. I told Lisa that one could buy any thing in the Contemporary Craft Museum gift shop and I would love it. I received these two gifts, which Mia helped her select.

This wonderful little cup is just the right size to hold my rings, I think. I love the lime green inside.

These earrings have a stitched detail which I did not notice at first.

Here is the back side.

I have already enjoyed wearing them several times. Good things do come in small packages.
