Watercolor class


Did I enjoy Linda Lucas watercolor class???  Oh yes!  I love her work with flowers and she shared so many great ideas.  I have a lot to learn but this was great fun.  Unfortunately like so many in Florida, she is a 'snowbird' and won't be back until fall.  In the meantime, practice, practice, practice.

Thanks for leaving a message on my blog...I will post a picture of the t-shirt quilt when finished..hopefully end of this coming week! I usually work on much smaller stuff so the quilting part is kind of a struggle!! Love your watercolor....I used to do quite a bit of watercolor before I got into fiber arts!
