This week it’s page 86 of the Meet Me At Mikes book, the raw ingredients and some creative thinking via more dead stick drawing. Not because making fabric coasters has anything to do with dead sticks and ink, but because it's interesting scribbling ideas with slightly unpredictable thick and thin ‘stick’ lines and blots of blackness. Every time I try this, my scribbles start out all tight and measured and end up all loose and quirky-like and then my kids reckon I ‘draw awesome’.
You know where to go to see what everyone else is up to this week...

Well, you just know you're on the right track when the toughest critics reckon you're awesome! Love (like, drooling love) the fabrics. I have to say that coaster project has called to me on a number of occasions. Let us know how it goes ... and if the kids approve ;)
I can't wait to see the finished products, the fabric you are using look great together. :)

I am such a complete control freak that there's nothin' like a bit of sheer unpredictability to bring me all unstuck and completely going with the stick-style 'flow'. (Please excuse the pun-fest) : D
Awesome cs Tania!!
