Summer fun

Humm. yes it is sunny outside and we are inside... wonder why?!?
We are going outside right after I post this! =-)
I saw on a blog the recipe for oobleck and decided to give it a try.. super cool!
2 cups corn starch and 1 cup water. beware of food coloring... it will also color hands! it acts like a liquid when delt with gently and like a solid when delt with more roughly.





PUSH AUBREY, PUSH!!



Ok...here is the new trim color...is it hideous??? sure hope not because I have finally finished 2 windows and am not redoing it! I still have....too many more to do!



My first finished quilt. a layer cake sewed together and the left over pieces make the binding...



My second finished quilt top is going to be quilted soon!!
we are going to try black thread! Can't wait to see how it turns out! Thanks, Lisa!

Ooh, you're doing all sorts of fun stuff! I made Oobleck for a library program in Anchorage once and it was really fun stuff. I REALLY like the trim color, and it looks very professionally painted! :-) Love both the quilts!

Just finished quilting it, now just the binding left! The colors are much darker than in that photo, and it was hard to see where I was going- but Tyler says it turned out "impecable". Don't know what you'll think, but I like the sound of that! =) Now onto the binding, I'll let you know when it's finished. P.S. the black thread looks very neat on the green backing!! ~lisa
