A Productive Day

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

I did it! I managed to make a 3 x  3 for every day of January. I am ready to move on to a new color. I have decided to do the primary colors first, and then the secondary. So will it be blue or yellow for February?

Here is today’s 3 X 3, made from scraps of vintage kimono fabrics.

I spent the morning getting a Constant Contact mailing out for Trinity Arts Call for Artists for our May fine art show and sale. I have received 5 entries so far.

After lunch, I went out to The Pine Needle Quilt shop in Lake Oswego to beef up my batiks for my online class/Twelve challenge piece.

Here are my piles by color and value:

I am very pleased with the range of values.

The light values are the hardes, but I am very pleased with these.

Tonight, I cranked out 2 Constant Contact e-mails for SDA reps. When I signed up for the Trinity Arts Constant Contact, I received a phone call from a CC coach. I laughed and told her, I was not new to CC as I do most of the e-mails for SDA. They are really a great company to work with. They have recently made some great changes in their system, making it really easy to edit and send.

Tomorrow, I have to put away a mess of fabric and get to work on assembling my work of art. Never a dull moment!
