a little paint, a little stitch

I'm having another productive day despite a poor sleep last night. I met friends for coffee on my way to the grocery store and got home in time to wipe out my oven which I had sprayed before I left. It wasn't a huge job, just a small spill.
I added a bit more paint to some bare patches on my canvas. I have two pieces this size and plan to make a zippered pouch once I'm done stitching on it. As you can see I've just gotten started.

 I really enjoy free motion zipping around the canvas, especially with a machine that goes smoothly!

While I was at my paint table, I added a touch of gold screen printing to a natural dyed silk scarf that I dyed  in early fall. I plan to get it in the mail this week. It's a Christmas gift.

Finally, I've sewn down the binding onto my garden piece and took it out on my deck for photographing. I can't decide if I should call it Moonlight Garden or Fantasy Garden or if I will put it up for sale.

I even got my fresh air, opting out of a walk but cleaning up a few more garden cuttings and tying up a few more bushes. We may get snow on the weekend!
