Welcome to Week 15 of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!! This week was a blur with very little sewing to share. OK, so that may even be no sewing, at all.
Stick around to see what else transpired...
SUNDAY - This week began in the usual manner with my Weekly Morning Art Zoom. I worked on another page in my NEW Get Messy Hangout Journal. I really enjoy expanding on the pages from my 2024 Artist Almanac...
Instead of decluttering the wire basket shown below, I opted to give it a new purpose.

It came complete with an examination, a chest x-ray, and a pharmacy run. The good news? I don't have pneumonia. Yay!! It's only a sinus infection. Thank you, Great Pollen Drop. Sigh...
I got home in time for the Eclipse, but this is the only one I saw from my couch:
After dinner, I went up to watch the day's presentation for Mixed Media Binge Week with Jennifer Chamberlin. Alas, it was ONLY available on Facebook...
So I added some bits and pieces to my Get Messy Art Journal instead:

After work, I quickly sat my water cup down on my scrappy YELLOW mug rug made a year or so ago while I went to change clothes and...
THURSDAY - It's the start of my weekend. I'm off today and tomorrow! :o))
Spring is blooming in my yard...
I spotted these azaleas on my way back from taking out the trash:

FRIDAY - We're on the road today, but...
The biggest surprise yesterday morning was finding this purple iris taking center stage in the planter out front. I was thrilled since I thought my neighbor had only shared YELLOW ones:
