WOYWW~ Mad House and Chaos Over Takes My Muse.

First off, Happy Wednesday!

I'm so thrilled to have you stop by and gander for a bit. I hope that you all have had a wonderful Wednesday and that your rest of the week will be Fantastic and Awesome .

Yes, You did correctly see my title for today's post. Have you ever had one of those days or one of those weeks? Well, my Muse has become so over loaded, I had to take a break from the Art Studio. So, I jumped up on my bed to meditate along with reading a few Articles and a few books (three to be exact). I was actually out of my shell. Uncomfortable that I was NOT doing a thing. No drawing or doodling. No cleaning of the house. I fell into a trance and blocked the world around "My Personal Space". No answering of the telephones. Turned on the class movie chanel and dug right in to the books I had grabbed off my shelf.

These are the four books I decided to really read, instead of skimming through them to pages that inspired me.

Layered, Tattered and Stitched: A Fabric Art Workshop1.Layered, tattered & Stitched by Ruth Rae.
