This week I had too many projects going at once so I took some time to finish off the filing and slowed down a bit on the dragon. Today I tried out some ideas for what I'm now calling the Laughing Dragon. I wanted to add some color to the spirals being breathed out by the dragon and the earlier one with a color wash just was not at all what I had in mind. Wanting to keep it airy and leave lots of the open space in the spirals, I tried out some color bubbles. Nope. So, time to leave it alone. Next one I show here will be a finished piece instead of an experiment or a dead end.

On to the sewing phase of the projects. And that means picking fabric for the back of the pillows. Looking in my drawer of larger pieces, I didn't see the sorts of batik with spirals I wanted and thought I had. Oops. Must be in the sole remaining bag of fabric left to put away, I thought. And yes, I was right. So the rest of the studio time for the weekend will be in selecting fabric and putting away the last of the fabric clutter.

Somewhere in this pile of fabric is some nice batik spirals in the right shades of blue and orange. And fondling my fabric is always fun. By the end of this next week, I plan to have 2 dragon pillows and at least one laughing dragon fabric collage finished.
