GROOVY...MY DAY ON TWISTIN' IN THE 60'S W/ BATIKS

GROOVY


Hey, Man
LIKE...It's...Today..
Ya Know..
TWISTIN' WITH THE 60'S
She's still a WIP (work in progress)
I haven't blanket stitched all the edges but she 
had to come to the party even though she wasn't quite ready for Prime Time


MY "GALFRIEND"
(CHECK IT OUT )
JUST
HAD TO MAKE A COME BACK

ONLY THIS TIME,
SHE'S ONE 
FINE
RETIRED

 HIPPY CHIC




GROOVY PIN CUSHION

PART OF THE 
UP-TIGHT ...OUTTA SIGHT
THREAD CATCHER PROJECT
(CHECK OUT THE TIE-DYED NOTEBOOK I FOUND IN MY STUFF)

MINI QUILT
USING 
BATIKS
(The pictures were colored w/ crayons and colors set with heat from my 4th iron in less than 1 yr.)


BACK OF MINI QUILT PROJECT

Don't have a Give-Away this time around but I do have a great story to tell about my days in the 60's and early 70's...RIOTS???  I WAS JUST WATCHING THEM, OFFICER, HONEST....

WAS THAT TEAR GAS THEY JUST SHOT AT ME?
LACED W/ PEPPER SPRAY????
NAH,  NOT GMAMA JANE....

You'll just have to wait for the Rest of The Story as Paul Harvey used to say...like I've always said, my stories are never dull!!!!

TWIST ON OVER TO SEE SOME MORE GROOVY CHICS AND THEIR 
OUTTA SIGHT PROJECTS
October 2


PEACE...out
GMAMA
