Is better than perfect - LOL - ;))
I sure hope she likes them -
I don't have any idea how she plans to clean them -
The upholstery fabric samples probably aren't "washable" -
So I don't think she can just toss them in the washing machine -
But the table topper idea didn't work -
So we decided to make potholders instead -
She is a VERY special friend -
Otherwise I wouldn't even bother - ;))
After dinner I wanted to play with my watercolors -
So I pulled out one of my new toys -
"The Joy of Watercolor" - © 2018 - Emma Block -
She has a lesson called "Blue Hydrangeas" -
Her version -
My version - LOL - ;))
I didn't have the same colors she used -
And I got a little carried away with the flowers -
So I had to add another leaf to balance it out -
And my "vase" is crooked -
But - not that bad - for a beginner -
NOTE TO SELF - if you're going to paint leaves - do them all at the same time - because if you try to add one later - you'll never be able to match the color you mixed in the first place - or call it a "design choice" and pretend that you really meant to do it that way all along - LOL - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

That's a good looking set of potholders. Your vase of flowers looks great. I'm out on the back porch looking at the leaves on the branch of a tree....they are different shades of green. It looks like you are learning a lot and are having fun doing it. I'm glad you are sharing it with us.
Those potholders are finally finished! Yaay. I am afraid she will toss them in the washer and they will not do well.
The vase of flowers looks better than "not that bad for a beginner."
I agree, the potholders and vase of flowers look great! You have natural watercolor painting ability!
