You are so talented @Notaro! Have you been inspired to do any new pieces after looking through your past work?

Thank you Marsha, I tried to do a simple pencil sketch of David Gilmour and a couple of other ones but they turned out horrendously bad so in the bin they went, I'll definitely try again at some point but alas my patience isn't what it used to be and I always feel like I should be doing some work around the house instead.

I get that. It's not something that can be forced but am glad to hear you'll try again when it feels more like the right time. You'll know when that is.

This might be DIY more than crafts but since I did make the macrame hangers, I guess it counts. I've always wanted to do something with the dead space above my sink but realized putting a shelf between the cabinets would block the light from the under cabinet fixture and I didn't want to put up anything that would mean drilling into the tile. It had looked even emptier before I had the gooseneck faucet installed last week but still too bare. Herbs had always been my thought for what would look good and be practical, too. It finally occurred to me I could hang pots by installing them from the underside of the top cabinet. Eureka! And voila.

Love it!  I'm stealing borrowing this idea, but I can't macramé, so I'll improvise.  Maybe some chain link or something.     

Pics when you've got it finished!

Did you ever do the quilt project?

I've started the quilt, but I had the idea to order some of my family tartan swatches from Scotland, and I'm waiting on those to arrive before I can finish. 

Sunny, did you get the tartans from Scotland?
