On a roll -

And I tripped up - LOL - ;))

I was on a roll -

And sewed the last THREE sets for my Upstairs/Downstairs - Gleaned - top -
Gleaned - © Carolyn Friedlander - Robert Kaufman -

THREE sets - 18 blocks -

And then realized that I didn't change the needle position setting from 3.5 to 4.0 -

I thought I might be able to get by without fixing them -

But I measured some blocks and they were barely 10-1/4" -

When they need to be 10-1/2" to match the other blocks -

That one "click" to the right gives me my "scant" 1/4" seam -

And that one "click" times four seams - adds up -

So I tripped -

And have to un-sew them all to fix them - RATS!! -

So I un-sewed one of the center seams on one set -

And spent the rest of the day on the computer -

Watching videos and bookmarking others that I want to watch later - LOL -

Then - after dinner -

I decided to do another watercolor -

This time I wanted to do the "Easy Flowers" - HERE -

With the "other" PURPLE watercolor pencils that I didn't use yesterday -

So I chose -

the same BLUE as yesterday - from the "kit" -
Learn Watercolor Pencil Techniques Now! Kit -
Item #6021059 -

And the "other" PURPLES from the Crayola 24 pack -
Crayola 24 ct. Watercolor Pencils -
Item 12849709 -

BLUE VIOLET -
RASPBERRY -

Along with the LIGHT GREEN from yesterday (kit)
BROWN from yesterday (kit)

And both #4 round watercolor paint brushes -

Started with the flowers -

And got this one -

The BLUE is the same as yesterday -

The BLUE VIOLET on the right looks sort of GREY to me -

And the RASPBERRY on the bottom is a pretty PINK -

NOTE TO SELF - pay attention to the spacing and placement of the flowers -
these look too crowded - the top right one should be farther up and to the right -
the bottom one should be lower like the one I did yesterday -
either space them farther apart - or do one flower at a time -
the BLUE VIOLET and RASPBERRY ones look like they are behind the BLUE one -
but that's only because I ran out of room and the BLUE one was in the way - LOL -

Side by side - yesterday and today - ;))

I found so many videos that I want to watch -

I think I'll un-sew some blocks -

Watch a video -

And repeat -

Until I either run out of blocks -

Or run out of videos - LOL - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
