Horsing around on some wood panels. No the green circle at the bottom wasn't meant to have a man with a mustache inside. No wait, now it looks like geese. It's a man smoking a pipe!
Now I'm seeing panda bears and elephants. I knew I shouldn't have had that last glass of wine. Whatever!
This was a big panel. The other 12 waiting in the wings are smaller than this, but bigger than a breadbox. Did you know there are 37 species of wild cats in the world? Or that the sand cats of North Africa are one of the smallest? And that they have fur on their paws to protect them from the hot sand? Remember how Gomer Pyle used to say "gawwwwwlllleeee!" That's exactly what I said while I was watching the sand kittens.

Love them, especially the middle one, as I sure do love me an orange flower.

Those kittens are freaking cute!! And you look like you are having too much fun with your panels.
Erica from ATL says
These are gorgeous!! You wouldn’t happen to be selling them at some point, would you? I kinda dig the man smoking the pipe! 😉
Dianne says

Donna says
You are soo funny! I’m debating buying a sewing machine…I want so much to be able to add that dimension to my projects.
Marci Glenn says
OOOO – these are lovely – can’t wait to see the finished panels. Hugs.
Sherri says
These are super cool! I am trying to finish some art to submit to an art event my city holds in April–but darn you and your Remains of the Day class! All I want to do is sew pages–hey maybe I can turn them into something? Hmmmm…. And I like the guy with the mustache by the way–your collage is like looking at clouds-so many interpretations!
Renate says
Yup, pandas and elefants. Guess I better check what the espresso maschine does with my coffee, because that is all I’ve had this morning…
Love, love, love the wood panel!
