Snippety

Still mostly reading and reviewing for my book blog.  I've had great fun with the medieval mysteries I've been reading, and I've also been lucky in some of my reads for Carl's Once Upon a Time Challenge.  It is difficult to keep up with the reviews, and I have quite a few scheduled, but even more to write.

I've also discovered a new author for contemporary mysteries:  Stephen Booth.  I've enjoyed the first two books in his Cooper and Fry series.  Has anyone read any of his mysteries?

Still not doing much in the studio, although some evenings I've played with embroidery and snippet rolls.  These are quick and easy!

This blue one is 22" long.

I've done a couple more of these, but the pictures haven't turned out too well, so maybe I'll try again with the other two rolls.

What to do with them?  Not that it matters much to me (I just like to try things), but these little snippet "ribbons" have been rolled up on old spools, used in gift wrapping, and used as closures for fabric journals.  Even if I don't come up with a use for them, I like the way they look hanging on the wall in my studio, and they are fun and easy to make.  :)
