Black and White


My one dread! The absence of colour in my work. Anne has chosen and done the sample for this weeks SPA ... she has made a fabulous fabric work of art.... however... here is mine... I always feel there is something missing doing things black and white, or that somehow it is unfinished.

  16. This is great! (I feel the same way about lack of color.) And I like the words. I've never heard that before. I especially like number 7.

  28. Oh, Mandy! I know JUST how you feel about B&W! When Somerset Mag did the B&W issue, I looked thru it once - I couldn't stand all of the color being sucked out of the issue.

    Must say though . . . your little clown is absolutely perfect and adorable. It's Wonderful!
