Recycling in my studio. Before starting more major projects I took a new look at UFOs (unfinished objects) to see if I could recycle or just toss. I'm recycling some into smaller projects. Here are just a few that I turned into pillows. I discovered that when I placed the pillow closing at just the right spot on the back I was able to use it as a magazine, book or remote holder - a neat hideaway.

Horsepower: All Stars - Continuing my horse theme, I managed to finish a screen printed whole cloth quilt with graphic paper transfers. Click on the image below to see more details.
