This is the last of the tattooed ladies for now.

And here she is, ready for her next exciting stunt!

Hand holding-

Antique glass button-

If that’s a proposal, I think she is saying no!

Lady #4

I think I’d call her hair strawberry blond.

Once again I am being distracted by a quilt. Instead of focusing on any one thing, I am flitting between projects and everything moves forward slowly. The nice weather is another distraction. The flowers are amazing this year.

The hair bows seem 1920′s to me.

She has a fancy button on her belt.

This is the same fabric as the mustache man. It is fun to cut out the body pieces to highlight different parts of the fabric design.

Big Circus Man

I’m continuing to work on pieces that were part-way finished before I left for Washington at the end of April. It makes me feel as though I am actually accomplishing something when I am being distracted by lots of other things like the garden and clothes-making. There are never enough hours in the day.
